Summary: The Scottish Referendum and its aftermath, viewed from national and international perspectivesRead an article by David Hutchison about the book on allmediascotland.comAfter the Referendum on whether Scotland should become an independent country in September 2014 ¬‒ and following a momentous mobilisation of voters by both the Yes and No campaigns ‒ Scotland's political environment has been fundamentally energised. But how was the Referendum campaign reported and structured in the media in Scotland, the wider United Kingdom, and in other parts of the world, and when might 'representation' have turned into 'construction'?In this book scholars, commentators and journalists from Britain, Europe, Canada and Australia examine how the media across the world presented the debate itself and the shifting nature of Scottish ‒ and British ‒ identity which that debate revealed. Several of the contributors also explore how the emphases and interpretations placed on the Scottish debate by their national media illuminate attitudes to their own nationalism and separatism questions.The consequences of the No majority vote are traced in the media through until the SNP landslide in the UK general election of 2015. The issues which have subsequently come to the fore will be relevant for years to come.ContributorsNeil Blain, University of StirlingMargot Buchanan, University of StirlingCatherine Côté, Université de Sherbrooke, QuébecEnric Castelló, Universitat Rovira I Virgili, TarragonaMarina Dekavalla, University of StirlingPeter Golding, Northumbria UniversityJohn Harris, Glasgow Caledonian UniversityGerry Hassan is a writer, researcher and commentatorDavid Hutchison, Glasgow Caledonian UniversityAnthea Irwin, University of UlsterBrian McNair, Queensland University of Technology, BrisbaneJames Mitchell, University of EdinburghKlaus Peter Müller, Johannes Gutenberg-Universität, MainzHugh O'Donnell, Glasgow Caledonian UniversitySian Powell, Cardiff School of Journalism, Media and Cultural StudiesDidier Revest, Université Nice Sophia AntipolisKevin Rafter, Dublin City UniversityJohn Robertson, University of the West of ScotlandFiona Skillen, Glasgow Caledonian UniversityFernando León-Solís, University of the West of ScotlandAndrew Tolson, University of LeicesterChristopher Waddell, Carleton University, OttawaKaren Williamson, Northumbria University"
