  • Scottsih Newspapers Have a Long Hisotry Fof Involvement With
    68th IFLA Council and General Conference August 18-24, 2002 Code Number: 051-127-E Division Number: V Professional Group: Newspapers RT Joint Meeting with: - Meeting Number: 127 Simultaneous Interpretation: - Scottish Newspapers and Scottish National Identity in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries I.G.C. Hutchison University of Stirling Stirling, UK Abstract: Scotland is distinctive within the United Kingdom newspaper industry both because more people read papers and also because Scots overwhelmingly prefer to read home-produced organs. The London ‘national’ press titles have never managed to penetrate and dominate in Scotland to the preponderant extent that they have achieved in provincial England and Wales. This is true both of the market for daily and for Sunday papers. There is also a flourishing Scottish local weekly sector, with proportionately more titles than in England and a very healthy circulation total. Some of the reasons for this difference may be ascribed to the higher levels of education obtaining in Scotland. But the more influential factor is that Scotland has retained distinctive institutions, despite being part of Great Britain for almost exactly three hundred years. The state church, the education system and the law have not been assimilated to any significant amount with their counterparts south of the border. In the nineteenth century in particular, religious disputes in Scotland generated a huge amount of interest. Sport in Scotlaand, too, is emphatically not the same as in England, whether in terms of organisation or in relative popularity. Additionally, the menu of major political issues in Scotland often has been and is quite divergent from England – for instance, the land question and self-government.

  • A Review of the Scottish Sporting Landscape
    A Review of the Scottish Sporting Landscape The Jarvie Report 2019 A report for the Scottish Government September 2019 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. This report sets out the findings and recommendations from the consultancy to undertake a review of the Scottish Sporting Landscape. The consultancy was commissioned by the Scottish Government and undertaken by Professor Grant Jarvie from the University of Edinburgh1. 2. The purpose of the report is to offer observations and recommendations on the current Scottish Sporting Landscape with a view to facilitating a more streamlined and coherent voice for Scottish sport. 3. The consultation involved four main stages (i) a briefing and introduction to remit; (ii) consultation through an online survey with key contacts identified by the Scottish Government and sportscotland (iii) a series of follow up correspondence, telephone and/or skype interviews, with 29 respondents; (iv) the analysis of the findings and the production of the final report. 4. The report is structured around the following headings: A short introduction; participant information; issues in Scottish sport; the Scottish sporting landscape; an effective voice for Scottish sport and key recommendations and observations. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS / RECOMMENDATIONS ISSUES IN SCOTTISH SPORT 5. The review noted both the issues facing individual sports organisations and the issues in Scottish sport as reported by respondents. It is evident that a significant overlap exists between the issues raised by individual sports organisations and the key reported issues faced by Scottish sport. 6. More respondents agree that Scottish sport is in a good place. There is, however, substantial evidence to suggest that the core issues facing Scottish sport include: • funding; • leadership; • equality; • capability; • capacity; • strategy; • organisation 7.

The data have been collected by TNS System Three as part of their omnibus household survey, the Scottish Opinion Survey. This research digest presents the data collected during the three years 2005-07, with earlier trend data providing a picture of change over time. Since 1998 data have also been collected from children (aged 8-15) and are included here. The sample size is made up of 6,000 adults and 1,450 children per annum and the analysis uses three-year averages to improve the consistency and reliability of the data. The survey is carried out every other month throughout the year. Participation is defined as having taken part at least once within the last four weeks (normally referred to in this report as having participated ‘at least once a month’). The definition of sport used is fairly broad and includes casual participation in physical recreations such as walking (2+ miles), dance and snooker/billiards/ pool as well as more organised sports. The main classifications used within this report are Sports, Sports plus Walking (2+ miles) and Sports less Physical Recreations. These are defined in the methodology section at the end of the report (p40).

St Andrew’s Day is the 30th November. B is for bagpipes, the national musical instrument. Not originally Scottish – in fact the Roman Emperor Nero played them. Or so my history teacher tells me. C is for clan, a group of Scots with the same ancestors, for example McDonald or Campbell. Each one has its own tartan. The best example is Stewart! D is for Dolly the sheep, the first cloned mammal. She was created in Scotland in 1996 and lived for seven years. E is for Edinburgh, the capital city. The Scottish Parliament is here and there’s a really famous arts festival in August. F is for the Forth Railway Bridge, one of the symbols of Scotland. I think it’s very beautiful. It was completed in 1890, and it takes seven years to paint! Think English Pre-Intermediate • Unit 6 p.55 © Oxford University Press PHOTOCOPIABLE G is for Glasgow, the second city of Scotland and my home town! We have two famous football teams, Celtic and Rangers. G is also for golf, a very popular sport in Scotland. H is for haggis, the Scottish national dish, a kind of sausage. (Don’t tell anyone, but I think it’s horrible!) H is also for the Highlands, the beautiful mountainous area of Scotland. I is for inventors. Scots invented or discovered: asphalt, the macintosh, penicillin, the pneumatic tyre.

You can find here vast and spectacular landscapes, pretty old mountains and it provides a rich history. But more than that, Scotland is also a country of myths and legends. The most ancient legends of Scotland participated in shaping the identity of the nation and made its people considerably unique.

  • Sport Participation in Scotland: Quantifying the Benefits
    Sport participation in Scotland: quantifying the benefits Dr Larissa Davies OBSERVATORY FOR SPORT IN SCOTLAND: ACADEMIC REVIEW PAPER INTRODUCTION It is widely believed that participation in sport creates economic and social impacts on society that extend beyond the behavioural changes experienced by individuals taking part. This is reflected in a clear shift in policy across a number of countries, from investment in sport for sport’s sake to investment in sport for wider societal good. The Active Scotland Outcomes Framework (Scottish Government, 2018a) is the Scottish Government’s key policy framework for delivering a more active Scotland. It outlines six key outcomes desired for sport and other physical activity over the next ten years. It is clearly focused on the contribution of physical activity to personal, community and national wellbeing and considerably more so than the Government’s previous strategy. While Reaching Higher (Scottish Executive, 2007) was also concerned with the contribution of sport and other physical activity to broader policy agendas, it was primarily about the improvement and development of Scottish sport. The current strategy for Scotland clearly places the role of sport and other physical activity in relation to wide-ranging benefits for individuals and communities. Until recently, evidence on the impact of sport participation has largely focused on measuring the economic contribution of sport to society, in terms of traditional economic indicators such as Gross Value Added (GVA)1, employment and consumer spending. In the UK home countries and elsewhere in Europe, there has been a primary focus on measuring the economic importance of sport (SpEA and SIRC, 2012).

  • Democratic Culture and the Historical Origins of the Scottish Right to Roam
    ALEXANDER.DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 4/5/2016 10:40 AM THE SPORTING LIFE: DEMOCRATIC CULTURE AND THE HISTORICAL ORIGINS OF THE SCOTTISH RIGHT TO ROAM ∗ Gregory S. Alexander In 2003, the Scottish Parliament enacted the Land Reform (Scot- land) Act, which, among other reforms, grants to “everyone” a right to access virtually all land in Scotland for a wide variety of purposes, including recreation, educational activities, and even some commer- cial or for-profit activities. Legal recognition of this broad-ranging “right to roam” comes after more than a century of debate over the public’s right to access privately-owned land in the Scottish High- lands.1 This Article is the first historical account of the origins of the remarkable Scottish right to roam. It sets the debate over the right to roam with a clash between two different visions of the sporting life. One, older, rooted in the Victorian and Edwardian periods, viewed the sporting life as one of hunting, aided by the use of modern tech- nology—rifles and such—and much older technology in the form of dogs and horses. The other vision is of more recent vintage. It is a vi- sion of contact with nature through walking, hiking, and similar forms of unmediated interaction with nature. Curiously, both visions of the sporting life claimed the mantle of preservation and conserva- tion. This Article argues that the culture of unmediated contact with nature ultimately prevailed as a democratic culture became more en- trenched in both politics and society. ∗ A. Robert Noll Professor of Law, Cornell Law School.
