Scotland and Nationalism: Scotis

First published in 1977, Christopher Harvie's acclaimed study of Scottish culture and politics since the Union of 1707, has been extensively rewritten to bring the story up-to-date and to draw on the remarkable output of Scottish historians and writers in the 1980s. Beneath the political level, but interacting with it, Harvie sees the evolution of a civic republicanism' which, unless checked by real measures of federalism, renders the future of the Union unpromising.
