The Economic development of modern Scotland 1950-1980
1985
Books, Manuscripts
These high-quality essays constitute an authoritative survey of postwar developments in the Scottish economy. Editor Saville opens the book with a piece that looks at the salient features of the interwar economy. This serves as a backdrop to essays by N. Buxton and P.L. Payne, which emphasize the changes that have occurred in Scottish industry since 1945. Taken together, these initial pieces neatly counterpoise the old versus the new and the successful versus the declining in the industrial sector today. The remaining nine essays cover most of the standard topics, including treatments of the financial sector, agriculture, and the role of government
