Abstract

The ongoing dispute over whether a new Scottish independence referendum should take place reflects very different interpretations of Scotland's sovereignty, writes Anthony Salamone. Questions of whether Westminster or Holyrood can determine if a new referendum is held are distinct from the issue of independence itself, and will most likely continue to be contested at least until after the next Scottish parliamentary elections.
