Scotland – a decade of devolution: BBC special report + Herdict

By Kieron L Jones, on 3 July 2009

decade of devolution This site was created by the BBC to provide coverage of the 10th anniversary of Scottish devolution. It includes timelines of key events, news stories and analysis of the history and political impact of the creation of the Scottish Parliament at Holyrood House. The site also includes film clips of interviews with leading players.

herdictweb Herdict is a special project of the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University. The title reflects the verdict of the herd on internet accessibility worldwide. The aim is to use citizen reports to track websites which are currently inaccessible in particular parts of the world. This enables researchers to consider levels of political censorship, including those arising during specific national crises. The site contains information on the aims of the project as well as free access to the latest tracking reports which give lists of inaccessible Internet sites by country.
