This paper discusses the effect that large scale private landowncrship has had on social development in a Scottish rural parish. Much of Scotland's land area is concentrated in the hands of a few owners, and it is argued that their decisions on land use continue to have a significant impact on potential for growth or decline in Scottish rural settlements, in spite of powers accorded to local and nationally appointed bodies.RésuméCet article analyse l'effet dc la grande propriété foncièrc privée sur le développement d'une commune rurale écossaise. En Ecosse l'essentiel des terres sont concentrées dans les mains d'un nombre assez restreint de propriétaires, et, scion cettc analyse, leurs décisions quant à l'usage du sol continuent d'influencer, de manière significative, le déclin ou la croissance des zones rurales écossaises, en dépit des pouvoirs accordés aux autorités publiques locales ou nationales.KurzfassungIn diesem Beitrag wird dcr Einfuß dcs privaten Großgrundbesitzes auf die soziale Entwickiung in ciner ländlichen Gemeinde Schottlands diskutiert. Ein großer Teil des Landes in Schottland ist in der Hand relativ wcnigcr Eigentümer und es wird nachgewiesen, daß ihre Entschcidungen über die Landnutzung weiterhin von bedeutendem Einfluß auf die Möglichkeic des wirtschaftlichen Wachstums oder wirtschaftlichen Abstiegs in ländlichen Gemeinden sind, trotz der Machtbefugnisse, die örtlichc und staatlich eingcriehtete Organe haben
