520 |a This monograph is about how the Scots language is discursively constructed, both from 'above' (through texts such as educational policies, debates in parliament and official websites) and from 'below' (in focus group discussions among Scottish people).

This allows a broader discussion of the role of this language in Scotland, and how different ways of constructing a language can percola.
