“Reflections on the 1997 Referendum” - A Lecture in Honour of Nigel Smith

Professor James Mitchell, University of Edinburgh

Reflecting on the last quarter century, drawing on Nigel Smith’s thinking and contributions, the lecture will consider the role of the ‘centre’ in our politics.  Nigel’s contributions to public life cut across politics, the economy and society but at its core was a concern for pluralism and the dispersal of power and authority.  What went right? What went wrong? And why and how do we right what has not gone, as perhaps Nigel would have seen things?
