Allan Macartney
Dr William John Allan Macartney (17 February 1941 in Accra, Gold Coast, now Ghana – 25 August 1998 in Aberdeen) was a Scottish National Party (SNP) MEP for the North East Scotland constituency between the 1994 European Parliament election and his sudden death from a heart attack in 1998. Born in Africa, the son of a Church of Scotland minister, his family soon returned to Scotland and he was schooled in Elgin, Moray. He studied at the universities of Tübingen and Marburg in Germany, and then at the universities of Edinburgh (graduating in Economic Science in 1962) and Glasgow. Upon completing his studies he returned to Africa as a voluntary secondary schoolteacher in eastern Nigeria (1963-1964). He then worked as a lecturer in government and administration at the University of Botswana, Lesotho and Swaziland from 1966 to 1974. Upon returning to Scotland, he continued his academic career, serving as Staff Tutor in Politics at the Open University from 1975 to 1994. He founded the Unit for the Study of Government in Scotland at the University of Edinburgh, and was elected Rector of the University of Aberdeen. He became the SNP depute leader in 1992. He was a founder of the Federation of Student Nationalists, and the founder and Provost of the Scottish Self-Government College. At the North East Scotland by-election, 1998, caused by Allan Macartney's death, Ian Hudghton held the seat for the SNP with a substantially increased majority. In 2006, an internship was launched by the SNP named after Dr. Macartney. Its aims are to encourage young people to take an interest in European and Scottish Politics. Applicants do not have to be members of the SNP. (Source)
