This book surveys elements that have influenced the Scottish people
over time and led to the formation of a distinct sui generis
identity. The modern state is an amalgam of people who inhabit a
specific given territory, people whose thinking has been formed by
circumstances and events which over time, forge a collective
identity and establish self-expression and determination.
Environmental happenstances, the genetic and intellectual makeup of
the people, the overcoming of common challenges, and the
interpretation of historical events all play a role in the
development of this collective thinking, forming the modern mental
structure of a given population. In the case of the Scots, these
elements have created an endemic view of the world that is unique
and recognizable. This text identifies these influences and traces
their development through time as they formed the self-felt
identity of the modern nation which has inherited the territory of
Scotland. Reviewed herein are some of the main factors which have
provoked a natural and correct desire for an independent state in
Europe: a Scotland for the Scots.
