The Scottish National Party has played a significant role in the politics of Scotland in the last forty years. In particular it has contributed to and shaped the impact and dynamics of devolution. This collection brings together academics, writers, commentators and analysts of Scottish politics to address the nature of the SNP: its position in Scotland, its influence on devolution, its role as a minority administration and its relationship with other institutions in Scotland, the UK and Europe.
The editor has long been at the forefront of this competitive field of commentary. Every contribution is erudite, some rivetingly so; all are highly historically informed and politically subtle, and the whole points to a groundbreaking understanding of the SNP's various phases of presence. This collection's importance can hardly be overstated ! for its constant erudition and historical awareness. -- Michael Gardiner Perspectives - the magazine of Scotland's Democratic Left The editor has long been at the forefront of this competitive field of commentary.
