Description
The Scottish Electorate: The 1997 General Election and Beyond A rigorous assessment of Scottish electoral politics, this book draws on original academic research to discuss the outcome of the 1997 general election in Scotland. It sets the 1997 Scottish result in a comparative context with the rest of Britain, analyzing the relationship between national identity and policy agenda as Scotland moves towards a new constitutional future. The book offers a comprehensive understanding of the developments following the 1997 General Election, which ranks alongside 1945 and 1979 as a turning point in post-war United Kingdom politics. The overwhelming endorsement of a Scottish Parliament in the September 1997 referendum will have significant implications for both Scotland and Britain. By analyzing the complex factors at play, this book enhances our understanding of these developments and provides valuable insights into the future shape of Scotland's politics.
