Abstract
The author considers strategies of construction of national identity in the context of history of the British Empire, including construction of memory of the so-called “internal empire” and “external empire” and alternative projects of its deconstruction and overcoming of post-imperial syndrome in the British historiography of the XXth century. Manifestations of the complex of multilevel identities are discovered.
