This book addresses the democratic accommodation of national
pluralism through federal rules. The key question is: can
federalism be a fair and workable way of articulating multinational
societies according to revised liberal-democratic patterns? In
recent years, scholarly discussion on this issue has undergone a
change. Nowadays, the answer to this question is much more complex
than the one that traditional political liberalism and federalism
used to give us. In the past, these two political approaches
usually addressed the question of political pluralism without
seriously including national pluralism in the discussion. A
theoretical attitude that has often misrepresented and impoverished
the moral discussions and the institutional practices of
multinational democratic federations. The author presents a model
based on Isaiah Berlin's concept of value pluralism and on the
analysis of federal democracies. He also puts forward a critical
analysis of the current Spanish territorial model and suggests four
potential future scenarios for this model based on federal
patterns.
