I am a historian of ideology, culture and politics, focusing on left-wing radicalism, nationalism, devolution and civil society in Scotland in the final third of the twentieth century. I am also a public commentator on contemporary Scottish and UK politics, writing regularly for the London Review of Books, the New Statesman and the Guardian, as well as appearing on television and radio.
