  Identity Questions in Contemporary Scotland: Faith, Football and Future Prospects
 
 
Title: Identity Questions in Contemporary Scotland: Faith, Football and Future Prospects
Author: Walker, G.
Appeared in: Contemporary British history
Paging: Volume 15 (2001) nr. 1 pages 41-60
Year: 2001-03-01
Contents: This article considers questions of religious and ethnic identity in contemporary Scotland and the continuing debate about the extent and significance of sectarianism. It does so primarily through a discussion of recent scholarly writing on the Catholic community and on Catholic-Protestant tensions, and it highlights issues such as education and in particular football. It is argued that much of this writing takes insufficient account of recent socio-cultural and political changes in Scotland, and it is suggested that more attention has to be paid to the less studied and apparently more ambiguous terrain of Protestant identity and attitudes. The article also speculates briefly on the ways issues pertaining to religious identity might manifest themselves in the context of the new devolved Scottish parliament.
