Question d'actualité - 2024 UK general election
par Lucas Leone Coutinho Miranda Frota,
publié le 21/06/2024
- On July 4, 2024, British voters will elect their Members of Parliament (MPs) to the House of Commons, and therefore their new Prime Minister (PM). Current PM Rishi Sunak, who called for an early general election on May 22, aims to win a fifth term in office for the Conservative Party. With a record number of candidates, this year's election involves key figures such as Labour Party's Keir Starmer, Reform UK's Nigel Farage, and Liberal Democrats' Ed Davey. This page provides different resources (articles, videos, cartoons, statistics) to help understand the voting process in the UK, map out each party's political agendas and leaders, and reflect on the place of Scotland and its Scottish National Party (SNP) in the campaign, as well as ponder the worldwide impact of the election.

Brexit and the challenges of the Irish border
par Fabien Jeannier,
publié le 14/02/2019
- Northern Ireland voted against Brexit, with a shorter majority than Scotland. However, Brexit is bound to happen. Although European integration has played an important role in mitigating the border effects with the Republic of Ireland in the context of a post conflict symbolic reconciliation, the Brexit negotiations have raised a very thorny issue: can a border be soft and hard at the same time?

Scotland’s No
par Alistair Cole,
publié le 29/09/2014
- Shortly before the Scottish referendum on independence, I visited the impressive city of Glasgow, Scotland’s largest city. Though the Scottish referendum eventually produced a No of over 55%, the once second largest city in the Empire was one of only four districts to vote Yes (just over 53%). I had correctly judged the atmosphere in this city, but elsewhere the story was rather different. In 28 of the remaining 32 districts, the No vote carried the day, including in SNP stronghold areas such as Angus and Perthshire...

Kirsty Gunn: Sound and Writing
par Kirsty Gunn,
publié le 08/09/2014
- That sound you hear, as though coming off the lonely Scottish hills, through the fine Highland air, passing across straths and glens, along rivers and to the sea... Is the sound of the piobaireachd, the classical music of the great Highland bagpipe, a music made for Gatherings, Salutes and Laments, a grand and grave and complicated music - Ceol Mor it is in Gaelic - The Big Music. The Big Music, too, is the title of my latest work of fiction - not a novel, but an elegy, as Virginia Woolf described all her work - a story that sounds as much as it says... An experience of words, of a story of people and a landscape, of a love story played across generations, that nevertheless sounds in the mind...

La correspondance entre Elisabeth I et Jacques VI comme base d’une future unité britannique
par Sabrina Juillet Garzon,
publié le 29/09/2011
-
La reine Elisabeth I ne choisit pas son héritier au hasard. Bien qu'elle ne voulût jamais révéler officiellement son choix, celui-ci se porta sur son cousin et filleul, le roi Jacques VI d'Ecosse. La correspondance des deux monarques offre une facette tant politique qu'humaine des liens que tous deux entretenaient tout en mettant en évidence leur stratégie pour maintenir une alliance qui devait garantir la paix et l'harmonie des deux royaumes au moment de leur union dynastique.

La difficile résurgence de la figure de la reine-consort dans les chroniques écossaises (1371-1655)
par Armel Dubois-Nayt,
publié le 05/09/2011
-
Cet article étudie en deux temps l'émergence de la figure de l'épouse royale dans l'historiographie écossaise de la fin du Moyen-âge au début de la période moderne. La première partie consacrée aux reines écossaises du VIIe au XIVe siècle met en relief le peu d'originalité de ces figures féminines qui déclinent la royauté au féminin presque exclusivement sur le mode de la criminalité (qu'elles soient meurtrières ou victimes) et de la sainteté. Elle fait parallèlement état de la lente reconnaissance du maillon féminin dans la chaine successorale jusqu'à la première tentative de régence féminine en Écosse par Jeanne Beaufort. La seconde partie est entièrement dévolue à cette dernière et s'intéresse au traitement du rôle politique de l'épouse de Jacques Ier au travers de quatre événements majeurs pour établir l'anxiété masculine à l'idée qu'une femme puisse exercer le magistère suprême, ne serait-ce que de manière transitoire.

Coming in from the Cold? The Thatcher Legacy, Devolution and Cameron’s Conservatives in Scotland 1979-2009
par Peter Lynch,
publié le 23/02/2010
-
In opposition, Conservative leaders such as Margaret Thatcher and David Cameron adopted quite different strategies to deal with Scotland and devolution. Mrs Thatcher's intention was to avoid splitting her own party over the devolution issue in advance of the 1979 devolution referendum,with an emphasis on party management. Cameron has had to deal with a more complex picture due to the institutional reality of devolution, the unpopularity of the Conservatives in Scotland and the election of the SNP government in 2007. This environment brought a cautious but positive approach to Scotland from Cameron, involving five different strands of territorial management in preparation for the 2010 UK general election.
