  • Land Reform and Land Restitution in Post-Feudal Scotland
    Land Reform and Land Restitution in Post-Feudal Scotland Paper presented at Squatters or Settlers: rethinking Ownership, Occupation and Use in Land Law a workshop held at the International Institute for the Sociology of Law Onati, Euskadi, Espana 1-3 June 2005 Andy Wightman Edinburgh, Scotland [email protected] This paper explores the historical context within which land reforms are currently underway in Scotland and provides a critique and analysis of their relevance and justification. It argues that, whilst new laws are welcome, they do little to counter centuries of landed hegemony. Historical assumptions, conventions and statutes relating to land ownership continue to be deployed in defence of a system of land law and a pattern of private landownership that is unjust and iniquitous. INTRODUCTION Cover Like many others I am sure the title of this workshop, Squatters and Settlers prompted me to think on matters of land tenure and landownership in a particular way. Interestingly, it is just this perspective that I have been increasingly been contemplating more often in the past few years. I should say at the outset that I am not an academic. I am a self-employed writer and researcher whose specialist topic is land tenure, land ownership and land reform in Scotland. Ghillie The essential argument I want to develop in this paper is, that existing title holders were squatters at one time, that the particular case of Scotland demonstrates eloquently how such squatting has taken place and been legitimised over the centuries, and that this history reinforces my view that tenure systems are social constructs which reflect the political, economic and cultural norms of the time.

    338. CHAPTER VII ------------ By the 18th century the Clan Ranald was a significant element in Scotland's distinctive religious situation.. The Catholic Church was an outlaw church and only in a few Highland areas could it operate with relative freedom. The Clan Ranald's "rough bounds" was such an area. In this district priests went about their duties with impunity and the catholic hierarchy eventually felt safe enough to create an Lr impressive religious establishment that was, them, unmatched through- out Scotland. There were two basic reasons for this confidence on the part of that church. Firstly, the Clan Ranald was a solid catholic clan from the various Captains of the kindred to the poorest , tenant, with the exception of a few tolerated, trusted and equally Jacobite episcopalian kinsmen settled mostly in Moidart and South Uist. Secondly, this conservative, highly martial and solidly catholic community happened to occupy a geographical territory that in the early 18th century remained remote and relatively inaccessible to government influence. Protected by the friendly peoples of the Clan Ranald (whose chiefs often kept: a priest in their own homes), catholic priests, school teachers, missionaries and, eventually, even a bishop were free to practise their religion, set up schools and seminaries and to sent out missionaries to other Highland districts. The successful work of the Irish missionaries coming into the Clan Ranald territories and the neighbouring Hebridean and west 1 Highland areas in the early 17th century has been noted and in the earliest Highland presbyterian records, those of the Synod of krgyll, See 66-79.
