Thanks to the collaboration of all public and social actors involved, the 4th Spanish Open Government Plan 2020‐2024 has been able to respond to the demands of the citizens, after a participatory process, with any precedents until now, to configure the open government action plans. For the first time, we also have a national Open Government Plan, which has featured not only commitments from the State General Administration but also the most innovative initiatives of all the autonomous communities and autonomous cities, as well as the local entities, through the Spanish Federation of Municipalities and Provinces. This national focus reflects the firm commitment of the public administrations to the policies of openness, transparency, participation and integrity, to more effectively serve the citizens. The construction of this framework of public governance constitutes the expression of a collective effort that should be sustained over time. For that reason, it has been designed for the coming four years, which will allow us to address the most ambitious challenges, with a clear transformational impact on the public administrations and society. Together, we want to strengthen the exercise of democratic rights and contribute to the consolidation in our country of a model of more transparent and participatory public co‐governance that is more committed to the integrity of the public and closer to the citizens. We want solid public organisations that generate sustainable value, that are open and inclusive, that leave nobody behind and that allow us to advance in the defence of the general interest and the common good. To the many people who have participated in the design of the Plan, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for their reflections, dedication and collaboration. Thanks to the citizens and the associations who sent us their contributions and to the organisations of civil society represented in the Open Government Forum, who have generously contributed to prepare the Plan. Also, thank you to all of the state, autonomous communities and local administrations who have been able to transform citizens' demands into commitments. I sincerely believe that the involvement of all men and women makes us stronger and I hope that with this same spirit of collaboration, we will fulfil the great commitments we have made to society through developing this 4th Spanish Open Government Plan 2020‐2024. Minister of Territorial Policy and Public Function, Carolina Darias San Sebastián 3 4 INTRODUCTION In recent months, Spain, like the rest of the in the last decade, their demands for greater world, has faced the challenge of addressing participation, transparency, integrity and the

    MODERN SOCIETIES AND NATIONAL IDENTITIES Legal Praxis and the Basque-Spanish Conflict Unai Urrastabaso Ruiz IDENTITIES AND MODERNITIES IN EUROPE Identities and Modernities in Europe Series Editor Atsuko Ichijo Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Kingston University United Kingdom The Identities and Modernities in Europe series covers one of the central issues of the social sciences: that of modernity. Arising from a European Commission funded FP7 project, ‘Identities and Modernities in Europe’, the series brings together the latest research findings and provides a broader sociological, historical and anthropological analysis of various dimensions of identity in contemporary European societies. By way of a comparative study of processes of Europeanisation, the series contributes to sociological understandings of migration, secularization and education. It also examines the dynamics between Europeanisation, nationalisation and globalisation.

  • Spanish Proposal to Host the European Cybersecurity Industrial, Technology and Research Competence Centre
    Leon’s proposal Spanish proposal to host the European Cybersecurity Industrial, Technology and Research Competence Centre 0 Executive summary 1 Ready to go 2 Success stories: we already did it 3 Leon: a city to live in, a city to work in 4 Castilla and Leon, a vibrant region 5 Spain: a commitment to cybersecurity 4 The Spanish Government is convinced that the candidacy of the city of Leon is the best possible one to host the European Centre for Industrial, Technological and Research Competence in Cybersecurity (the Centre). We are presenting this candidacy with the certainty that Leon meets all the requirements and has unbeatable competitive advantages to ensure that the European Union maintains and develops, through the Centre, the cybersecurity capabilities necessary for our single market. The virtues of Leon's candidacy relate above all to its technical and professional suitability, but I would also like to highlight all its material and organic advantages: Leon is prepared to immediately house the headquarters of the Centre, in a privileged building located in the city centre, with excellent connections for its employees and only a few metres away from the largest high-speed train network in Europe. Leon is the Spanish capital of cybersecurity, as it is the headquarters of the National Institute of Cybersecurity (INCIBE), and has demonstrated its ability to successfully host technology, business and research centres integrated into European networks. It is a safe bet for value. Leon is also an excellent place to live and work. Countless indicators show Spain's capacity in infrastructures, health and education systems, historical and cultural heritage, leisure and social and citizen integration.

Pre-constitutional Law and Constitutions: Spanish Colonial Law and the Constitution of Cádiz M.C. Mirow* The Spanish Constitution of Cádiz of 1812 has recently gained the attention of constitutionalists and legal historians as an essential step in the development of world constitutionalism generally and Latin American constitutionalism more specifically. This interest in the Constitution of Cádiz, or the Spanish Constitution of 1812, has increased due to its bicentennial in 2012 and by the rolling bicentennials of independence of Latin American republics. The events leading to the Constitution of Cádiz and its implementation throughout the Spanish Empire are closely related to both initial independence movements in Latin America and to their subsequent constitutional practices and texts.1 There are fewer studies concerning the pivotal role the extant Spanish colonial law (derecho indiano) played in these events.2 * Professor of Law and Associate Dean of International & Graduate Studies, FIU College of Law, Miami; Investigador Honorario, Escuela Libre de Derecho, Mexico City, Mexico.

Zaragoza is the biggest province with 17.252 square kilometers, followed by planned actions; to define the Huesca with 15.613 and Teruel, 14.785. As a result of its size, Aragón is the fourth Spanish autonomous community. spatial limits of the analysis. Aragón is located in the northeastern part of Spain, bording on Cataluña (Catalonia), Valencia, Madrid y País Vasco (the Basque Country); also, Aragón has excellent connections with the rest of Spain, road access to France, train and plane. The Ebro River Valley which crosses the region is considered as the most active development priority in Spain in the last years. Thanks to its strategic location, Aragón plays a remarkable role as frontier with Europe through the Pyrenees (Some people define Aragón as the "European door" for the rest of Spain).

Facib aDepartment of Genetics and Plant Production, Laboratory for Agronomy and Environment (DGA-CSIC), Estacio´n Experimental de Aula Dei, CSIC, Apdo. 202, 50080 Zaragoza, Spain bDepartment of Soils and Irrigation, Laboratory for Agronomy and Environment (DGA-CSIC), Centro de Tecnologı´a e Investigacio´n Agroalimentaria, DGA, Apdo. 727, 50080 Zaragoza, Spain Accepted 24 October 2004 Abstract The surface Irrigated District V of the Bardenas Canal (Zaragoza, Spain) was evaluated, and alternatives were assessed to improve on-farm irrigation performance. Field work consisted of a soil survey and a campaign of irrigation evaluation. The results of the irrigation evaluations were extrapolated to the whole district using a hydrodynamic surface irrigation model. An average irrigation discharge of 152 L sÀ1 results in a relatively low irrigation time (2.8 h haÀ1). Shallow soils, a limited conveyance network, and poor irrigation management practices determine that the application efficiency in the district is low, with an average of 49%. The district wide irrigation efficiency only reaches reasonable values when the system operates under water scarcity (49% in 2000 versus 66% in 2001). The simulation of surface irrigation indicated that the optimum irrigation time in the current situation is 1.7 h haÀ1. The optimization of the irrigation time would lead to an average application efficiency of 76%. Improved irrigation management can therefore result in substantial water conservation in the district.
