Who Owns Scotland Now? by Auslan Cramb

This work investigates the influence of the landowners on the Scottish landscape, and calls for change. Today the old families who continue to cling to vast estates have been joined in the ownership of Scotland by foreign businessmen and aristocrats, rock stars, pension funds and environment groups. The book discusses whether areas containing important species and habitats should be sold; whether crofting estates should be priced beyond the means of the local community; whether vast areas of land should be treated as occasional homes and managed, often to the detriment of the environment; and if there is a more productive Scotland on the horizon, one where land reform gives communities a say in the use of their land and where the damaged environment begins to heal.
