Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good Plus. First Edition. 1990. ix,139pp. "Between the early eighteenth and the middle decades of the nineteenth century, Scottish society was transformed by industrialization, urbanization and major changes in agriculture and rural society. The rate of town and city growth was among the fastest in western Europe, migration and emigration accelerated and the traditional way of life in the Highland and Lowland countryside was brought to an end through the pressures of market demand and landlord strategy. Such a major upheaval created increased social tension. Conflict and Stability in Scottish Society challenges the previously accepted view that this major upheaval in Scottish life did not stimulate much unrest and that a modern industrial society developed relatively smoothly. The papers here, given at the Scottish Historical Studies Seminar at Strathclyde University in 1988-89, suggest that protest was more common, more enduring and more diverse than is usually supposed." Some sunning to spine of dust jacket. Book and jacket are in excellent condition with no inscriptions, and all contents are tight and clean. Presentation slip from the publishertipped in to half title page. (presented to Stana Nenadic, one of the contributors).…
