Copied Doctor Who: A British Alien?
Doctor Who: A British Alien?
This book argues thatDoctor Who, the worlds longest-running science fiction series often considered to be about distant planets and monsters, is in reality just as much about Britain and Britishness. Danny Nicolexplores how the show, through science fiction allegory and metaphor, constructs national identity in an era in which identities are precarious, ambivalent, transient and elusive. It argues that Doctor Whos projection of Britishness is not merely descriptive but normativeputting forward a vision of what the British ought to be. The book interrogates the substance of Doctor Whos Britishness in terms of individualism, entrepreneurship, public service, class, gender, race and sexuality. It analyses the shows response to the pressures on British identity wrought by devolution and separatist currents in Scotland and Wales, globalisation, foreign policy adventures and the unrelenting rise of the transnational corporation.
