Professor Beckwith Conducted Interviews at the Scottish Parliament for Current Projects

Professor Karen Beckwith concluded interviewing at the Scottish Parliament. She interviewed women who sit in the Parliament who are members of parties that support a “yes” vote on the Scottish independence referendum: Scottish National Party and Green Party MSPs. She also interviewed party leaders, as well as the Scottish Parliament Presiding Officer. Part of two separate projects, the interviews focused on MSPs’ vision of conditions for Scottish women in an independent Scotland, and on party leaders’ paths to leadership and the competitive nature of their selection processes.
