Key features
First book to examine the recent revival of the Scottish Conservative PartyAnalyses the Scottish Conservative Party and Ruth Davidsons leadership in ground-breaking ways, for example in the context of gender and LGBT politics; its relationships with the SNP, Northern Ireland, the Scottish media and the UK Tory Party; its use of Scottish national identity in promoting itself electorallyComplements and updates David Torrances 2012 edited volume for Edinburgh University Press on the decline of the party, Whatever Happened to Tory Scotland?Helps inform Scottish political and academic discourse ahead of the 2021 Holyrood elections
When Ruth Davidson was elected leader of the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party in 2011, it was considered something of a joke: in electoral decline for decades, politically irrelevant and apparently beyond the point of no return. But by 2017, Ruth Davidsons Conservatives had become Scotlands second party at Holyrood and Westminster, and its leader spoken of as a future leader of the UK Conservative Party, if not the next Scottish First Minister.
This book, which brings together leading academics and analysts, examines the extraordinary revival of the Scottish Conservative Party between 2011 and Ruth Davidsons shock resignation in 2019. Contributors look at the importance of gender and sexuality, the 2014 independence referendum, the Scottish media and the UK Conservative Partys territorial code to the changing fortunes of the party and its leader, asking if it can be sustained amid the turbulence of two ongoing constitutional debates.
