Research Overview
One of
Dr Macdonald's key research interests is Anglo-Scottish relations
in the later middle ages. His doctoral thesis on Anglo-Scottish conflict
between 1369 and 1403 has now been published as a monograph. This
research feeds into other areas of interest, such as Scotland's place
in the wider world of European diplomacy and the development and nature
of European frontier societies. His main research project at present
is to examine the nature and impact of war on state and society in
later medieval Scotland.Â
