Synopsis:

Spain, one of Europe's oldest nation-states, is in serious difficulty with Catalan secession becoming the most important issue as economic recovery is gradually achieved. During the 20th Century Catalonia was frequently cited as a model for the successful devolution of power from central government to the regions and seemed to embody the successful construction of a political community based on autonomy within a state but the new century has been marked by an ever-growing independence movement. Pro-independence mobilization has produced a rupture in political relations with the rest of Spain leading to a sovereignty struggle with Madrid. The Catalan question is not only a Spanish problem though, it has direct implications for European integration as the economic crisis puts severe strain on the European project and the traditional nation-state model.
