Award-winning journalist Sathnam Sanghera deconstructs the raging arguments around the legacy of the British Empire and explores Britain's complex relationship with its imperial past.

The British Empire was a vast political, economic, and cultural power that spanned centuries and continents.

The history of British imperialism, however, is increasingly obscured today by debates that rage across the political spectrum – and international borders – about whether the empire was a force for 'good' or 'bad.' The reality, however, is far more complex.

In his 2024 book, Empireworld, British author and journalist Sathnam Sanghera examines British imperialism's wide-reaching and deep-seated global impacts.

Examining how attitudes toward the Empire differ in Britain and the rest of the world, Sanghera offers insights into how Britain can best forge new relationships with the nations it exploited.
