Book A Political History of Scotland 1832 1924

Download or read book A Political History of Scotland 1832 1924 written by Iain G. C. Hutchison and published by Birlinn Ltd. This book was released on 2003-11-24 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this way it provides an illuminating perspective and serves as a corrective to both Scoto-centric and Anglo-centric interpretations of events. Previous studies have tended to concentrate on the resources of the main record repositories in London and Edinburgh, and, while these collections are indispensable for any interpretation of the period, they do tend to highlight two types of politics more than others - the political operations of the great landed estates and the 'high politics' of the front benchers - and they are not always fully representative of all parts of Scotland. This book therefore has paid attention to a wide variety of source material in private hands and in local record centres to redress the balance and provide a more balanced picture. This scholarly but very readable study will appeal to all those with an interest in the political history of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Book Making the Union Work

    Book Details:
  • Author : Alexander Murdoch
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2020-04-07
  • ISBN : 1000051757
  • Pages : 298 pages

Download or read book Making the Union Work written by Alexander Murdoch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making the Union Work: Scotland, 1651–1763, explores and analyses existing narratives of Jacobitism and Unionism in late seventeenth to mid-eighteenth century Scotland. Using in-depth archival research, the book questions the extent to which the currency of kinship patronage politics persisted in Scotland as the competing ideologies of Scottish Jacobitism and British Whiggism grew. It discusses the connection between the manifest corruption of patronage politics and the efflorescence of the Scottish Enlightenment. It also examines the stance taken by David Hume and Adam Smith in defining themselves as philosophers first, Whigs second, but Scots above all else, and analyses whether they achieved international success because of or despite the parliamentary union with England in 1707. Organised chronologically and concluding with an assessment of the newly formed United Kingdom in the decades following the 1707 union, Making the Union Work: Scotland, 1651–1763 will be of great interest to researchers and academics of early modern Scotland.

Book Whigs and Liberals

    Book Details:
  • Author : John Wyon Burrow
  • Publisher : Oxford [Oxfordshire] : Clarendon Press ; New York : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 1988
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 182 pages

Download or read book Whigs and Liberals written by John Wyon Burrow and published by Oxford [Oxfordshire] : Clarendon Press ; New York : Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of English political thought in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries is organized around the concept of a Whig tradition. Professor Burrow argues that the study of nineteenth-century liberal thought has taken insufficient account of its eighteenth-century antecedents. The work of modern scholars on eighteenth-century themes, especially the civic humanist tradition and the Scottish Enlightenment, is drawn on as a preamble to considering the central ideas of Liberalism. The book traces how the concept changed between the early eighteenth and the late nineteenth century, and examines the main points of continuity, analogy, and difference in the progress of society, public opinion, individuality, and the idea of balance. A concluding chapter looks at the early twentieth century.
