of these groups and the differences within and between them. There
is consideration of non-civic aspects of national identity, as well
as a measure of political party nationalism in Scotland over the
past forty years that illustrates the ideological movements of each
major party during this period. This work also represents the first
comprehensive examination of the discourse involved in the
expression of national identity within Scottish politics and
society, combining quantitative and discourse analysis methods to
illustrate the articulation of national identity by differing
groups in different contexts. Key Features Presents a detailed
