Discurso a la nación catalana

Synopsis of Discurso a la nación catalana

«Discurso a la nación catalana» is Ramón Cotarelo García's essay on Catalan independence, published by Ara Llibres in paperback (152 pages, in Spanish).

Ramón Cotarelo addresses the Catalan nation with a radical message, supported by historical and legal arguments on the right to self-determination. He argues that Catalonia is a nation without a state, while Spain would be the shadow of a fallen empire that failed to become a nation and, by not treating its parts justly, becomes «una cárcel de pueblos». The work, with a prologue by Artur Mas, projects these ideas into the present and future to give meaning and legitimacy to the independence path.

Essay in Spanish by political scientist Ramón Cotarelo (Madrid, 1943), emeritus professor of Political Science. Paperback edition of 152 pages published by Ara Llibres in 2019.

Recommended for readers interested in the Catalan sovereignty debate, nationalism and current political analysis in Spain.
