Abstract
This article provides a summary of my research on how popular politics influenced the events leading to the Union of 1707. It argues against overly narrow historiographical interpretations of the Union as the product of corrupt elite politics. It shows how popular politics shaped events in three stages leading to the Union. It is aimed at teachers of history and published in the annual yearbook of the Scottish Association of Teachers of History.
