Scottish politics in the decades after 1945 are re-examined in this book, which emphasizes the significance of ideology and language. It is based on original archival research and reveals the central role of an individualist, anti-bureaucratic critique of central government in modern Scottish politics. Initially employed by those on the political right to criticize the post-war Labour government's nationalization program, this rhetoric was later appropriated by advocates of constitutional change. As liberty became framed in constitutional rather than economic terms, understandings of political representation also shifted, with the arrival of the referendum in British politics lending credence to the belief in a distinct Scottish tradition of popular sovereignty.
