Part Three of our survey of Britain and its empire 1500-2000 covers the \u201cretreat\u201d from Empire after 1945. This 5-week course looks at the impact of WWII on the Empire and domestic conditions.\u00a0 We also consider the impact of war upon Asia, focusing upon Indian Independence in 1947 and its knock-on effects.\u00a0 We then turn to decolonisation in the Middle East from the late 1940s and Africa from the mid-1950s. Finally, we look at the other decolonisations in Malaya, Cyprus, the West Indies and Hong Kong.\u00a0 We will also examine some legacies of empire, not least whether the British Isles can be viewed as the last colonial zone empire.\u00a0 Will Brexit trigger a final \u201cretreat\u201d from empire, and will this include decolonizing the \u201cempire of the mind\u201d?<\/p>\n
