Overview

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the Catalonian crisis in Spain from a historical, political and legal perspective. Using the precedents of Québec, Scotland, and partially Veneto and Bavaria, the author highlights some of the key issues of contemporary secessionist nationalism, including its relationship with sovereignty, the right to have a referendum, and the capacity of a particular territory to amend the constitution in order to admit secession.

Reviews

Professor Beltran has written a deep and interesting book about the so-called Catalan secessionist process, in which complicated deep constitutional and political questions are ingratiated. ... It can be valuable for academics looking for patterns in the complicated world of nationalism and constitutionalism, but also for non-academic audiences interested in a well-written and challenging book on one of the most candent topics in modern Europe: an unprecedented attempt of secession in an occidental democratic country. (Javier Padilla Moreno-Torres, European Public Law, Vol. 26 (2), 2020)
