Catalonia: A New Independent State in Europe examines the main
issues of the political process which is taking place in Catalonia
today. The political confrontation between the Spanish and Catalan
institutions has now reached the international arena, especially
the debates concerning international recognition of a new Catalan
state and its membership of the European Union (EU) and other
international institutions. There are no precedents for the
secession of a region from an EU member country that could be
applied to the case of Catalonia. Therefore, it is not surprising
that the world has many unanswered question about the process. This
volume aims to provide answers to many of these questions in a
systematic and rigorous way. Why has the political scenario in
Catalonia changed so radically and so rapidly? Is this new
situation only temporary and support for independence is likely to
vanish very soon? What role has the deep economic crisis in
Catalonia and in Spain played in the process? Is a potential new
Catalan state economically viable? Which are the main legal
controversies about self-determination and independence between the
Spanish and Catalan institutions? Would an independent Catalonia be
a member of the EU? This book will be of great use to academics and
students in the field of politics and international relations,
particularly those interested in European economic and political
studies. It will also interest a wide segment of general readers
interested in contemporary political issues.
