Category: Governance & Politics
Public domain knowledge resources around the public insititutions & bodies that are responsible for running the country at both the national & local level, and the individuals – such as elected politicians – with responsibility for oversight of them.
NOTE – We publish our knowledge maps about the ‘national local’ building blocks of Scotland in map posts, which provide a full description (including of all the knowledge elements embedded within / attached to the various knowledge seed branches, as well as any knowledge link sub-branch collections), options to view & download, and some ‘fun facts’ we discovered in the the making of them. Anybody can view the HTML version of the map fullscreen in a new browser tab, however to download the HTML5 file itself – for viewing on or off-line in any modern browser, on any device, without additional plugins – you will need to register for basicc membership (it’s free :-) . To download the original map in MindManager (.mmap) format – for ‘full feature’ viewing, amending, adapting & repurposing in MindManager software – you will need PRO membership, available for a modest annual, or one off lifetime, fee. If there’s an aspect of Scotland you would like us to knowledge map, then please get in touch.
