The commencement of the 17th Century forms a remarkable era in the history of Scotland. From the succession of the House of Stewart to the Throne, the authority of the Sovereign had been at least equally balanced by the power of a factious nobility, and the ascendancy of turbulent chiefs ; and though the personal energy of some of the Princes of that House turned the scale for a time in favour of the Crown, and reduced the disorderly vassals to a state of comparative tranquillity, their death, invariably premature, never failed to rekindle the passions and renew the feuds which had been suppressed, but not extinguished. The distracted reign of the hapless Mary, with first the long minority, and afterwards the temporizing policy of her son and successor, had removed the imperfect restraint imposed by preceding monarchs on the excesses of 4 PREFATORY NOTICE. their potent subjects, and let loose all the elements of anarchy and local hostility, especially in the more remote districts of the kingdom. The expedient usually employed to suppress these, was to arm one feudal Baron or warlike Chief against another ; an expedient often unsuccessful, through the combina- tion of those who found it their interest to make common cause with the party assailed, or even the unaided prowess of his fol- lowers, and always hazardous, inasmuch as temporary success served only to augment a power, employed as frequently against as in support of the Government. The accession of James VI. to the Throne of England, pro- duced a great and salutary change. The undisputed Sovereign of a country, far exceeding in wealth and population his here- ditary dominions, he was emancipated from the controul of the nobles who had tyrannized over his childhood, and the chief- tains who had set his mandates at defiance. He could now call into action, in order to enforce the laws and preserve the peace of every province, an amount of power and a variety of re- sources which none of his predecessors had at their command. Had he inherited their spirit of enterprize and determination of purpose, he might, doubtless, have employed those means with an effect far surpassing that which attended them in his PREFATORY NOTICE. 5 feeble hands. Still Ave date from that period a firmness in the execution of the laws, and a controul over the feudal jars and sanguinary conflicts of the several clans, which had till then incessantly distracted the land, such as was previously unknown in the history of the country. It is true that the false system of entrusting the more pow- erful noblemen with the duty of punishing offences against the State, and putting down disturbances in their vicinity, was not entirely abandoned ; but it became less dangerous when the power thus delegated was exercised only in the name of the King, and in the capacity of his Lieutenant, and when the influence which it gave was controuled by the overpowering weight of the sovereignty of the whole Island. An Earl of Douglas, or a Lord of the Isles, might shake the Throne of Scotland, but was altogether impotent against the Crown of Britain. We find accordingly, that from this time crimes were repressed, offenders punished, and tranquillity enforced witli equal severity and success ; and though there still mingled in the administration of justice, not a little of the barbarism of the age, and attempts, neither unfrequent nor unsuccessful, were made to render it subservient to family aggrandizement or personal revenge, it operated powerfully in taming the 6 PREFATORY NOTICE. passions of men, and working a gradual improvement in the frame-work of society.

  • Scots Abroad, Nationalism at Home: Kailyard and Kilt As Gatekeepers? 1885 – 1979
    Scots Abroad, Nationalism at Home: Kailyard and Kilt as Gatekeepers? 1885 – 1979 Graham David Robson University of Stirling PhD October 2015 1 The emigration of the Scots from the 18th to the 20th century has produced a diaspora. The thesis outlines how many diasporas are involved in the nationalist projects of their homeland. However, over the chronology of this study and beyond, whilst there were active movements to amend or end the Union of 1707, it has been found that the Scots were not. The thesis then proposes some explanations for this. Chapters one and two introduce methods, research material and context; they describe the Union, the emigrations and diasporas. The study uses for comparison purposes the Irish and Norwegian diasporas. Lines of enquiry such as nationalism, the use of soft power and gatekeeping behaviour are presented, with a discussion of Scottish nationalism. The study examines the approach to involving the diaspora of five groups; both SHRAs, the International Scots Home Rule League, the National Convention and the NPS/SNP. The response of Scottish MPs in the diaspora in England to the many attempts to legislate for home rule is also examined. The approach to the diaspora was found to be badly executed and targeted. Few visits were made, and only to the US and Canada. Communication was unfocussed and spasmodic. The Scottish associational clubs were frequently used as a conduit. A small part of the whole diaspora, these acted as gatekeepers, selectively mobilising for themselves as an elite which had no need of nationalism as they could succeed without it.
