查迪·史密斯的小说《白牙》常常被解读为对英国多元文化社会的书写,但如果从小说中对第一代移民的书写和第二代移民的教育问题进行考察的话,《白牙》实质上是作者对英国所谓的多元文化社会的质疑和批判。小说中的第一代移民处于分裂状态,第二代移民被学校和家庭教育所规训和同化。小说中移民对政治活动的参与也证实了其被主流社会不断边缘化的事实以及边缘政治对于促使英国真正成为多元文化社会的重要性。
Charlie Smith’s novel “White Tooth” is often interpreted as the writing of British multicultural society. However, if we study the writing of first-generation immigrants and the education of second-generation immigrants from novels, It is essentially the author’s questioning and criticizing the so-called multicultural society in Britain. The first generation of immigrants in the novel is split and the second generation of immigrants are regulated and assimilated by school and family education. The participation of immigrants in political activities in the novel also confirms the fact that they are being marginalized by mainstream society and the importance of border politics to make Britain truly become a multicultural society.
