Reviews
"This important volume illustrates the complex entanglements between power, identity and belonging embedded in multiple historical social networks informing the Scottish Highlands' uneasy relationship with the Atlantic World. Its thematic focus on land, language and networks of (dis)empowerment is an invaluable contribution to contemporary policy discourses in Scotland and elsewhere. " -Calum MacLeod, Sustainable Development Consultant and Policy Analyst
