  • Skye and the Land Agitation John Norman Macleod
    "Chaidh a' Chuibhle mun Cuairt'" - Skye and the Land Agitation John Norman MacLeod THE Highland Land agitation of the 1880s is a theme which has been widely researched and extensively written about, with a particular focus on the years between 1881 and 1886. Skye very much featured in the upheavals of this period and I will look again at the main events, appraise their significance and consider why Skye crofters were to the forefront of agitation at this time? For this talk on the land agitation in Skye, I will confine myself to the same period 1881-86, while recognising that the land agitation, here as elsewhere, extended well beyond this date and even continued after the First World War. Before looking at events at Braes, Glendale and Kilmuir, it is worth considering some wider aspects of Highland and Islands land agitation. What was the nature and extent of the crofters' resistance? What factors helped to activate and sustain the land agitation of this period? And, indeed, why was there not more of it until the 1880s? Though the tenantry endured great hardships as a result of the Clearances there is a general viewpoint among historians that tacksmen, crofters and cottars did very little to help themselves before the 1850s, both to resist the removals and extreme provocation they endured at the hands of the landlords. Despite these claims, there were reported incidents of conflict, even as early as 1792 in Coigach, with around fifty in all reported in the period to 1855. However, up until the 1850s, there was little unified resistance with no sustained attempt by the victims to mount anything approximating to a generalised assault on their oppressors.

  • The D E F ENCE TEAM
    EDIT DRDC-RDDC-2015-P120 Canada’s defence establishment is a unique organization, comprising two distinct E MAY 2015 D BY: institutions: the civilian-led Department of National Defence (DND), headed by the Deputy Minister of National Defence, and the military-led Canadian Armed Forces GOLDENBER (CAF), headed by the Chief of the Defence Staff. In practice, however, civilian and military personnel – collectively referred to as the Defence Team – work side by side in a variety of contexts, including on bases, on operations, in military academic settings, and at National Defence Headquarters. G , FEBBRARO & These highly integrated workforces allow Canada’s defence establishment to draw on the complementary expertise of military and civilian personnel. Nonetheless, some fundamental differences exist between the military and civilian institutions, most notably separate personnel management systems and distinct cultures that reflect the D different histories, values, roles and policies of Defence civilians and CAF members. EAN Understanding the unique benefits and challenges associated with this integrated workforce is therefore critical to optimal military-civilian personnel collaboration. THE This volume presents conceptual, empirical and historical analyses of the key contextual, organizational and interpersonal factors that influence collaboration between civilian and military personnel in DND and the CAF. The volume will appeal to a diverse audience, including Defence Team personnel, senior leaders in DND and the CAF, human resource professionals, military managers of civilian D personnel and civilian managers of military personnel, and a more general audience interested in workgroup and organizational diversity. The volume furthers our E understanding of military-civilian partnerships and will contribute to the discourse F on the evolution of the Defence Team within Canada.

This is in addition to about the same number, dealing with the traditions^ superstitions, general history, and social condition of the Highlands, and mostly prepared after business hours in the course of an active private and public life, including my editorial labours in connection with the Celtic Maga- zine and the Scottish Highlander. This is far more than has ever been written by any author born north of the Grampians and whatever may be said ; about the quality of these productions, two agreeable facts may be stated regarding them.

Indeed, it is urgent for SMO to do so, amid repeated calls from Bòrd na Gàidhlig and the Scottish Government for a ‘faster rate of progress’ for Gaelic in the context of enacting the National Gaelic Language Plan 2018-23. SMO is therefore continuing to evolve its response to an increasingly challenging funding and operating environment, to contribute through its leadership to Gaelic-medium education, Gaelic research and Gaelic social and economic development. 2018-19 has been a year of change, with the retirement of the Principal, Prof. Boyd Robertson, and Vice Principal, John Norman Macleod at end of the previous academic year.
