| Synopsis: |
The principal argument in Gibraltar and Empire is that Gibraltarians constitute a separate and distinctive people, notwithstanding the political stance taken by the government of Spain. Various factors - environmental, ethnic, economic, political, religious, linguistic, educational and informal - are adduced to explain the emergence of a sense of community on the Rock and an attachment to the United Kingdom. A secondary argument is that the British empire has left its mark in Gibraltar in various forms - such as militarily - and for a number of reasons. Gibraltar and Empire's exploration of the manifold reasons why the Gibraltarians have bucked the trend in the history of decolinaztion comes at a time when the issues in question have come to the fore in diplomatic and political arenas. |
