How much independence can a small country like Scotland have? Lindsay Paterson argues that throughout the last 300 years the nature of Scottish independence has changed frequently. While nationalists have successfully challenged old forms of autonomy, pragmatic unionists have influenced the outcome of these protests, negotiating workable compromises with England and the wider world.
Lindsay Paterson is Emeritus Professor of Education Policy, School of Social and Political Science, University of Edinburgh.

He has contributed to many debates in Scotland since the early 1990s on education, on social change, and on politics.
