The architecture of the period since 1975 is attracting increasing attention from historians. Although the broad outlines of its history seem to be well-known, detailed archival research and oral history are increasingly allowing a more complex picture to be developed. On the one hand, this period saw the critical evaluation of the approaches to architecture and planning which had dominated in the 1950s and 1960s, and the emergence of new approaches, often indebted more overtly to history and context. The role of the state as architectural patron was challenged by new political ideologies and models of procurement. An ever more diverse range of individuals and organisation became involved in shaping the built environment, with the contributions of women, minority groups, and local communities becoming prominent. In Scotland, there were particular questions relating to the country's specific economic and social challenges. At the same time, Scotland's place in the UK was debated and contested. Nonetheless there were also important continuities between Scotland and its southern counterparts during this period. This project will be a detailed research-based and inter-disciplinary historical study of Scotland's architecture between 1975 and 2005. This period is of increasing interest to architectural historians, heritage professionals and the general public, but research-based studies of the built environment of this period remain rare in Scotland. This contrasts with extensive political and social histories of Scotland in the 1970s and 80s, and the post-devolution decade.The project will explore the key shifts in architectural design and practice in post-1975 Scotland, not least through the prism of awards, competitions, and architectural promotion. It will situate the broader themes of that Post-Modern architectural culture within Scotland's late-twentieth century social, economic, and political history, building upon the existing pioneering but inevitably brief overview histories (e.g. Miles Glendinning et al's A History of Scottish Architecture (1996) or the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland's Scotstyle (2016), and more subjective private practice monographs and popular guides.Using a range of archive sources, contemporary publications and oral history, the project will offer significant new insights. This project will involve new archival research in a range of significant post-1975 Historic Environment Scotland (HES) archive collections. Other public and private collections will also be used. The project will include field-work, and interviews with architects and client-users. It will complement the ongoing HES Post-1975 Survey & Research Project and may inform its practices. The project will generate new knowledge of the historic built environment, which will potentially shape future heritage decision making.

自1975年以来，这一时期的建筑越来越受到历史学家的关注。虽然其历史的大致轮廓似乎是众所周知的，详细的档案研究和口述历史越来越允许一个更复杂的画面被开发。一方面，这一时期见证了对20世纪50年代和60年代占主导地位的建筑和规划方法的批判性评估，以及新方法的出现，这些方法往往更明显地依赖于历史和背景。国家作为建筑赞助人的角色受到了新的政治意识形态和采购模式的挑战。越来越多的个人和组织参与塑造建筑环境，妇女、少数群体和当地社区的贡献变得突出。在苏格兰，存在着与该国具体的经济和社会挑战有关的具体问题。与此同时，苏格兰在英国的地位也受到了争论和质疑。尽管如此，在这一时期，苏格兰和南部的同行之间也有重要的连续性。这个项目将是一个详细的研究为基础的和跨学科的历史研究苏格兰的建筑在1975年和2005年之间。这一时期的建筑历史学家，文物专业人士和公众越来越感兴趣，但这一时期的建筑环境的研究为基础的研究在苏格兰仍然很少见。这与20世纪70年代和80年代苏格兰广泛的政治和社会历史形成鲜明对比，以及后权力下放十年。该项目将探索1975年后苏格兰建筑设计和实践的关键转变，尤其是通过奖项，竞赛和建筑推广的棱镜。它将在苏格兰世纪末的社会、经济和政治历史中，在现有的开创性但不可避免的简要概述历史的基础上，探讨后现代建筑文化的更广泛的主题（例如Miles Glendining等人的《苏格兰建筑史》（1996）或苏格兰苏格兰风格建筑师皇家公司（2016），以及更主观的私人执业专著和流行指南。利用一系列档案资料，当代出版物和口述历史，该项目将提供重要的新见解。该项目将涉及一系列重要的1975年后苏格兰历史环境（HES）档案馆收藏的新档案研究。还将使用其他公共和私人收藏品。该项目将包括实地工作以及对建筑师和客户用户的采访。它将补充正在进行的HES 1975年后调查和研究项目，并可能为其实践提供信息。该项目将产生关于历史建筑环境的新知识，这将可能影响未来的遗产决策。
