In Spain's Name
In Spain’s Name Jordi Borràs In three months, anti-independence activists have been behind 139 violent incidents in Catalonia, 86 of them physical aggressions. Photo: Jordi Borràs 6 MÈDIA.CAT YEARBOOK Vandalism, insults, threats and beatings are just some of the Spanish unionist-inspired attacks that were seen in autumn 2017, especially after 1 October. Although the perpetrators are a small minority among all the people who have come out in favour of Spanish unity, the violence cuts across boundaries and has set the tone in a great many of the mobilisations by anti- independentists. Far-right militants have been behind a great many incidents, but by no means all of them: in many cases, the only common denominator among the aggressors is the display of pro-Spain symbols or slogans. The majority of the Madrid-based media have ignored these aggressions and fed an anti-Catalanist narrative that has made them even more immune from punishment. To complement this report: Appendix. Chronology of incidents. Page 136 7 Between 8 September and 11 December, at least 139 violent in- cidents took place in Catalonia that were politically motivated in defence of the unity of Spain (without including the actions of the Spanish police on and around 1 October to prevent the referendum from going ahead). Of these — you can consult the complete list of incidents in the appendix at the end of this Yearbook — the majority (86) were physical aggressions, which caused a total of 101 victims with injuries of varying degrees of consideration. The remaining of- fences were of a range of types, although primarily we find threats, intimidation, vandalism, damage to private property and at least two cases of sexual violence. -

Inside Spain Nr 129 23 May 2016-20 June
Inside Spain nr 129 23 May 2016-20 June William Chislett Summary Rajoy warns of consequences of Brexit. Divided left ‘close’ to absolute majority in upcoming election. Registered jobless drops below 4 million for first time in six years. Spain moves up the Soft Power 30 ranking. Telefónica teams up with Facebook and Microsoft in fibre-optic cable venture under Atlantic. Foreign Policy Rajoy warns of consequences of Brexit The Spain-UK relationship would suffer if Britain votes on 23 June to leave the EU, acting Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy warned. More than 400,000 British citizens live in Spain, the largest such group in the EU, and their status would change if Brexit happens as they would lose their automatic right to live, work and own property in the country. At present, UK citizens are entitled, for example, to healthcare via the European health insurance card or free health insurance from the Spanish government under EU law, but Spain would not be obliged to continue to offer free healthcare to non-EU citizens. ‘I have no doubt whatsoever, as I have repeatedly stated, that it would be very negative if the United Kingdom left the European Union’, Rajoy told Spanish news agency EFE. ‘Above all, it would be very negative for British citizens: the European Union is based, ever since its foundation, on the principles of freedom of movement of people, goods, services and capital’. The UK is the main destination for Spanish investment abroad (with a stock of £58.7 billion in 2014) and the UK is the fifth-largest investor in Spain (€1.7 billion). -
CATALUÑA COMO CAMPO DE BATALLA Jordi Borràs 5 LA DERECHA RADICAL EN EL ESTADO ESPAÑOL 5
CAPÍTUL0 CINCO CATALUÑA COMO CAMPO DE BATALLA Jordi Borràs 5 LA DERECHA RADICAL EN EL ESTADO ESPAÑOL 5. CATALUÑA COMO CAMPO DE BATALLA Difícilmente se puede abordar la cuestión de la extrema derecha en el Estado español sin tener en cuenta el papel que ha jugado Cataluña en este terreno. Primero, desde el punto de vista ideológico como centro importador y fábrica de ideas de extrema derecha; una extrema derecha que, excepto en contadas excepciones, ha venido asociada al españolismo radical. Y segundo, con el rol que le ha tocado vivir, como un campo de batalla convertido en la amenaza latente del desmembramiento del Estado. Y es que las reivindicaciones catalanistas históricamente han significado una amenaza para toda la transversalidad del nacionalismo español. No es nada casual, entonces, que encontremos en Cataluña los primeros grupúsculos del Estado español que podemos clasificar como ultraderechistas, ligados precisamente al combate contra las reivindicaciones catalanistas desde un españolismo militante. Este sería el caso, por ejemplo, de la Liga Patriótica Española (LPE), una organización de corta trayectoria, nacida en 1918 en Barcelona y formada por nacionalistas intransigentes donde confluían carlistas urbanos, republicanos lerrouxistas, policías, militares y funcionarios del Estado. Con el recuerdo reciente de la pérdida de Cuba dos décadas antes, veían las reivindicaciones catalanistas como un enemigo a abatir con urgencia y, si era necesario, con grandes dosis de violencia. 5.1 INTRODUCCIÓN Y CONTEXTO1 El reaccionarismo ante el catalanismo y la confluencia y convivencia de diferentes sectores ideológicos ante la amenaza de la «antiespaña» es un hilo conductor a 1 Este capítulo 5 se finalizó antes de la celebración de las elecciones catalanas el 14 de febrero de 2020. -
Secession Or Solidarity. Catalonia Will Not Get Both Simultaneously
NO. 22 MAY 2018 Introduction Secession or Solidarity Catalonia Will Not Get Both Simultaneously Sabine Riedel Since the arrest of the former head of the Catalan government, Carles Puigdemont, a solidarity movement has emerged that paints him as a victim of the justice sys- tem. However, even if the German government prevents his extradition this is hardly likely to influence the trials against his colleagues remanded in custody in Madrid. The Spanish public prosecutor’s office accuses them not only of rebellion, but also of embezzling money from the autonomous communities’ liquidity fund (FLA) for their independence campaign. Since the 2012 financial crisis, Madrid has had to subsidise heavily indebted regions, including Catalonia, with loans. Barce- lona annually receives between 6.7 billion (2012) and 11.1 billion euros (2015). This financial dependence motivates Catalans to bid for independence, in the expecta- tion that it will lead to direct access to the European Central Bank (ECB). Europeans need to reflect on who should be given their solidarity. A Catalan state would be born with a mountain of debt, which the other Spanish regions and the European taxpayer would ultimately have to shoulder. On 27 October 2017, the Spanish central also wish for more financial self-administra- government suspended Catalonia’s autono- tion. my under article 155 of the Spanish consti- Madrid’s offer may have come relatively tution. Even Madrid knew that the conflict late, but it was an olive branch nonetheless. over secession would not be resolved via Carles Puigdemont and his deposed regional this measure. Instead, new elections were government have still not grasped it. -
2020 Spain Country Report | SGI Sustainable Governance Indicators
Spain Report Mario Kölling, Ignacio Molina, César Colino (Coordinator) Sustainable Governance Indicators 2020 © vege - stock.adobe.com Sustainable Governance SGI Indicators SGI 2020 | 2 Spain Report Executive Summary The social and economic crisis (2008 – 2013), which included several corruption scandals, eroded public trust in Spain’s political system. This has had a remarkable impact on the party system since 2015. In addition to the two traditional forces, the conservative Popular Party (PP) and the Socialist Party (PSOE), the left-wing Podemos, the liberal Ciudadanos and the far-right party Vox have emerged, and are now crucial for the formation of majorities in the parliament. Since a grand coalition between the two traditional parties is still unlikely, the new parties are key potential partners in coalition or (possibly via confidence and supply agreements) for minority governments. A wider choice of political alternatives may represent a positive development, but it has come at the cost of reformist momentum and government stability. After the no-confidence vote against Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy in May 2018, the Socialist government – drawing on the support of less than 25% of deputies –conveyed a picture of political change, but lacked the authority to implement deep policy changes. Nevertheless, the PSOE minority government announced ambitious policy reforms and focused on symbolic measures aimed at appealing to progressive voters. However, in February 2019, Spain’s parliament failed to approve the annual budget for 2019, underlining the instability of the PSOE government. As a result, Prime Minister Sánchez decided to call for early elections on 28 April 2019. PSOE’s victory in the elections, with 29% of the vote, seemed to be a sign of democratic resilience. -
