Explanation

During and following the 1960s, several changes helped decentralize England culturally and institutionally. Radio hosts began using regional dialects and multicultural accents, the Arts Council prioritized funding for regional arts bodies, and new regional radio and television stations were launched nationwide. Together, these factors encouraged a richer, more varied cultural landscape and supported the growth of postcolonial fiction.
