Chapter 3 provides historical background to the case study analysed in subsequent chapters by looking at the historical events that led to the 2014 Scottish independence referendum. It offers a summary of how the Scottish constitutional issue developed particularly in the second half or the 20th century, the movement for devolution in the 1990s, the establishment and the first decade of the devolved Scottish parliament, up until the 2011 Scottish election, which instigated the independence referendum. It also discusses definitions of Scottish identity and their role in claims for Scottish independence. It then maps out the media landscape in Scotland and the media’s ideological positions in relation to autonomy.
