Journal/Book: Cult Stud. 1996; 10: 11 New Fetter Lane, London, England EC4P 4EE. Routledge Journals. 270-287.

Abstract: Using ethnographic fieldwork as a basic building block, in combination with historical detail and insight from sociology, this article seeks to interrogate the military presence in the British colony of Gibraltar. In doing so it exposes the relationship between the military and Empire and asks important questions about the construction of 'Britishness'.
