Discussion Continuation: Exploration of Scottish Political History during the Period of Union, spanning c. 1700-1945
Durham University Hosts Two-Day Conference on Modern Scottish Political History
In July 2024, Durham University played host to a two-day conference focusing on Scottish political history, titled "Histories of Scottish Politics in the Age of Union, c.1700-1945". The conference was organised by scholars within the university, but the exact institutions involved were not specified in the search results.
The conference received support from three prestigious organisations: the History of Parliament, Past & Present, and the Scottish Historical Review Trust. The support from these organisations suggests a broader academic interest in the conference's topic.
The Scottish Historical Review Trust is a charitable organisation that supports research and publications in Scottish history. Past & Present is a scholarly journal focusing on history and political and social theory, while the History of Parliament is a research institute dedicated to the study of the history of Parliament in Britain.
The association of the conference with these respected institutions may enhance its credibility. However, the search results do not provide any specific details on the organisers or participating institutions for the July 2024 conference at Durham University.
It is possible that the conference may have been promoted or publicised through these organisations' networks. The conference's findings or outcomes may be published in Past & Present or the Scottish Historical Review, the journals affiliated with some of the supporting organisations.
The conference was not mentioned to be open to the public, and no specific outcomes, decisions, or findings from the conference were mentioned in this paragraph. For precise details on the conference, it is recommended to check Durham University's official history department announcements, event archives, or to contact the university directly for organisers and institutional partners.
