The Centre on Constitutional Change (CCC) is a leading centre for the study of constitutional change and territorial politics in the United Kingdom and beyond. It was established in August 2013 to research the UK’s changing constitutional relationships. Based at the University of Edinburgh, its current fellows include academics from the Universities of Aberdeen, Cambridge, Cardiff, Stirling, and University College Cork.
The Centre also acts as a hub for a much wider network of scholars across the UK and beyond engaged in analysis of contemporary constitutional issues. It is one of the leaders of the Islands and Unions Network, linking academics and practitioners across the United Kingdom and Ireland.
The CCC is led by Co-Directors - Prof Michael Keating (Universities of Aberdeen & Edinburgh) and Prof Nicola McEwen (University of Edinburgh). Our research is multi-disciplinary, with the team spanning the fields of political science, economics, constitutional law, and public policy.
