Land Reform in Scotland
Author: Malcolm Combe
Publisher: Scotland's Land
ISBN: 9781474446853
Category : Land reform
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A stimulating rethink of contemporary land reform in Scotland from historical, legal, and socio-economic perspectives Land reform is as topical as ever in Scotland. Following the latest legislative development, the Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2016, there is a need for a comprehensive and comprehensible analysis of the history, developing framework and impact of Scottish land reform. Scholarly yet jargon-free, this landmark volume brings together leading researchers and commentators working in law, history and policy to analyse the past, present and future of Scottish land reform. It covers how Scotland's land is regulated, used and managed; why and how this has come to pass; and makes some suggestions as to the future of land reform. Key features: - Offers a holistic approach to land reform in Scotland; - Draws on case studies of land policies in the UK, mainland Europe and the USA to allow comparison and contextualisation of Scottish land reform with other models; - Examines the significance of right to property on the land reform process, and looks at how it is now being used as an impetus for economic and social rights reform; - Designed to suit individual academic specialisms, while still being accessible to readers across disciplines and professions. Malcolm M. Combe is a Senior Lecturer in law at the University of Strathclyde and non-practising solicitor Jayne Glass is a Land Use Policy Researcher at Scotland's Rural College (SRUC) and Honorary Lecturer at the University of Edinburgh Annie Tindley is a Senior Lecturer in modern British History at the Newcastle University

The Scottish Office
Author: David Milne
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 100045102X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 243
Book Description
Originally published in 1957, this book gives a comprehensive account of the scope and variety of the work previously performed by Scottish Government departments in Whitehall during the second half of the 20th Century. The then Secretary of State for Scotland’s role was unusually diverse – he or she was the equivalent to a number of English ministers. The book examines this complex role and then analyses the work and organisation of 4 main departments: Agriculture, Education, Health and Home. The approach is a broad one, with an explanation given of how and why Scottish arrangements and practices differ from those south of the border.
