本文是1995年5月17日在爱丁堡大学旧学院普莱费尔图书馆举行的第一次W A Wilson纪念讲座的修订文本。它认为苏格兰法律作为一个整体的各种愿景，认为它现在是一个基于判例法和先例的制度，因为在原则上，它在十九世纪偏离平民传统是欧洲总趋势的一部分。从世纪后期开始，影响苏格兰律师态度的另一个因素是，他们倾向于将自己视为大英帝国和美利坚合众国内讲英语的律师大家庭的一部分。
This article is the revised text of the first W A Wilson Memorial Lecture, given in the Playfair Library, Old College, in the University of Edinburgh, on 17 May 1995. It considers various visions of Scots law as a whole, arguing that it is now a system based as much upon case law and precedent as upon principle, and that its departure from the Civilian tradition in the nineteenth century was part of a general European trend. An additional factor shaping the attitudes of Scots lawyers from the later nineteenth century on was a tendency to see themselves as part of a larger Englishspeaking family of lawyers within the British Empire and the United States of America.
