Introduction. An important part of the work completed in academia is sharing our scholarship with others. Such communication takes place when we present at scholarly conferences, publish in peer-reviewed journals, and publish in books. This OWL resource addresses the steps in writing for a variety of academic proposals.his page is brought to you by the OWL at Purdue (https://owl.english.purdue.edu/).

How did Scotland gain independence from the British Empire? The British Empire is all but gone, with the last major overseas territory, Hong Kong, becoming a special administrative region of China in 1997. Scotland was an independent câ¦ountry until 1707, when the Union with England Act was passed.
The Scottish Government (Scottish Gaelic: Riaghaltas na h-Alba; Scots: Scots Govrenment) is Scotland's devolved government. The government was established in 1999 as the Scottish Executive under the Scotland Act 1998, which created a devolved administration for Scotland in line with the result of the 1997 referendum on Scottish devolution.
