Show Notes

I am very happy to introduce you to historian Reuben Duffy. After gaining a joint honours degree in History, Politics and International Relations from the University of Strathclyde, Reuben started his masters in Modern History at St Andrews. Reuben is interested in modern Scotland and his work focuses on Scotland's involvement the with British Empire and the eventual decolonisation process. In this episode we discuss whether there were any uniquely Scottish elements of the British Empire, decolonisation, class and religion. Oh, and we touch upon the question of modern Scotland and independence (sorry not sorry...). Enjoy!
