This book traces the story of how and why thousands of Scots made money from buying and selling humans… a story we need to own. We need to admit that many Scots were enthusiastic participants in slavery. Union with England gave Scotland access to both trade and settlement in Jamaica, Britain's richest colony and its major slave trading hub. Tens of thousands from Scotland lived and worked there. The abolition campaign and slave revolts threatened Scottish plantation owners, merchants, traders, bankers and insurance brokers who made their fortunes from slave-farmed sugar in Jamaica and fought hard to preserve the system of slavery. Archives and parliamentary papers in both countries reveal these transatlantic Scots in their own words and allow us to access the lives of their captives. Scotland and Jamaica were closely entwined for over one hundred years. Bought & Sold traces this shared story from its early beginnings in the 1700s to the abolition of slavery in the British Empire and reflects on the meaning of those years for both nations today.Voir livre

Democratic Citizenship: A Continuous Approach to Proportionality in Political ParticipationIntroduction Democratic citizenship is a fundamental concept that underpins the functioning of democratic societies. It encompasses the rights, responsibilities, and active participation of individuals in political and civic life. One of the critical aspects of democratic citizenship is ensuring proportionality in political participation, which means that all segments of society have an equal opportunity to engage in the political process. This continuous approach to proportionality is essential for maintaining a healthy, inclusive, and representative democracy.The Importance of Proportionality in Political Participation Proportionality in political participation ensures that diverse voices and perspectives are heard and represented in the decision-making process. This inclusivity is vital for several reasons:Legitimacy and Trust:When political participation is proportional, the decisions made by elected officials are more likely to reflect the will of the people. This enhances the legitimacy of the government and fosters trust among citizens.Social Cohesion:Proportional political participation helps to bridge social divides by giving marginalized and minority groups a platform to express their concerns and contribute to policy-making. This can lead to greater social cohesion and reduced conflict.Innovation and Problem-Solving:Diverse participation brings a range of perspectives and ideas to the table, which can lead to more innovative solutions to societal problems.Challenges to Proportional Political ParticipationVoir livre
