This book traces the development, and subsequent implementation, of
the policy of plantation from the mid-sixteenth through to the
early seventeenth century focusing specifically on the North
Channel context. By examining why plantation emerged as a policy
within the north of Ireland, why it was implemented within the
western Highlands and Isles of Scotland, and the repercussions of
such a policy, the book will engage with debates about plantation
as part of a "civilising" policy, and what that meant for
communities and individuals that were brought together by the
waters of the North Channel. Rather than view plantation as a tool
of state formation, formulated at the centre and imposed onto the
periphery, the author seeks to emphasise it was the result of
ongoing dialogue between a number of individuals and communities
and was as much a response of the centre to events on the
periphery. Thus, while plantation in the northern province of
Ireland came to be a pivotal part of James VI and I's "British"
project, the outworking of that policy was rather different.
