The Catalonian secessionist crisis was the most noticeable event
that Spain offered to Western politics in the opening decades of
this century. Within this time - characterised as it is by huge
technological acceleration, myriad online and trade interactions
across multiple levels, high levels of political polarisation, and
widespread feelings of collective unease and discontent - the
Catalonian secessionist movement has become one of the prevalent
topics of public policy and political debate in the European Union.
The Catalonian matter is often reduced to a narrative that
Catalonian citizens - typically dynamic, engaging and with the
wonderful city of Barcelona as their capital - are not at ease with
life within Spain and would like to rule their society and to
organise their lives themselves. Meanwhile, the central authority
in Spain resists any demand for attaining sovereignty. This
antagonism has poisoned the relations between regional and central
authorities and the conviviality among many Catalonian citizens.
This paper explores the existence of other Catalonian citizens who
do not usually appear in tellings of this often truncated and
over-simplified story. There is great diversity within this group,
CatSpanish, a citizenry which recognises and declares a double
national identity - both Catalonian and Spanish, to varying degrees
for each person - in terms of feelings of belonging.
