The history of Scotland and addressing homelessness

On this episode, we talk to Murray Pittock, Pro-Vice Principal at the University of Glasgow and Bradley Chair of English Literature, about the research in his new book Scotland: The Global History: 1603 to the Present which seeks to place the international Scotland that we see today into a historical context.    

We also speak to Jocelyne Fleming, one of the authors of the ‘Road to Home’ report produced by the UK Wide Centre for Housing Evidence on the role the University can play to both understand the issue of homelessness and address its root causes.
