A Few Plain Questions to the Working People of Scotland

By Friend of Order

"A Few Plain Questions to the Working People of Scotland," published in 1792, offers a fascinating glimpse into the political and social climate of late 18th-century Scotland. Penned by a self-described "Friend of Order," this pamphlet directly addresses the working class, posing questions intended to promote stability and discourage dissent. The text provides valuable insights into the concerns and anxieties of the ruling classes during a period of significant social and political upheaval, influenced by events such as the French Revolution. This short work is a key primary source for understanding the dynamics between the elite and the working population in Scotland during a pivotal era. Its historical value lies in its direct engagement with the issues of social order, labor, and political participation. Scholars of Scottish history, political science, and social movements will find this a compelling and insightful document.
