The catalan week in New York is open.
But I hope that what we start to-day will not . end next Saturday.
What we start to-day is an attempt to link two Universities, two
cities and two cultures for more lasting period of time.
I will try to make
my
self olear about the "what" and the "why"
/ `y` of these othén</ise "just nice" words.
New York is the City, and i mean quote "the" unquote City, the
capital of cities.
I know it because I lived here for two years and I loved it
^ ^ier since.
/1' Perhaps it would be molé correct to say that I liked New York be
fore knowing.it and, dadly- enough, it appeared to me exac:tly as'
I had dreamegl it .
But when I speak of attempting to establish._°close links between
our universities and our cities, it's not
just a love affair what
I have in mind. When I speak of links I mqkn, bussiness .^^
New York
is
our ma
^y
cet . r
New York is both our supply and our demand market.
New York es one of the greatest
aniskspeaking
cities i n the
wolld .
New York has been the refuge of our exile in the forties as it
ha been for the rman intelectuals since.the thirties.
Three hundred meters from here,
at
the ew School a host o
ropean scholars found a place to make international science:
Marcuse, Habermas, Mongentaav, our own Fernando de los Rios
were there.
�2.
Here at N.Y.U., Nicolás Sánchez de Albornoz, Var6, Regalado and
so many other, keep alive the ipanish contribution to world culture and science.
Same thing Carmen Zulueta at City University, Margarita Ucelay.at
Barnanos College and George Collins in Columbia. George Collins
is I am sure the greatest scholar in Gaudi, our most original and
probably most well known modernist architect.
It's with fresh sorrow that I have to'teil you that the architect
Josep Lluis Sert died last Monday, his body incinerated in Barcelona and his ashes-taken to the small,island of Ibiza.
J
Sert, the Dean of the Har~d School of design for many years, was
the builder or your Roosvelt Island, these scalated wasses.of glass
that I have just seen again coming home this morning thru the Frankin Roosvelt hilway.
New York is our malket and is also a bit of our city, of our abi^ity to build cities and culture, of our mediterranean sense of
proportion and space.
Honestly you should VIcognice us this bit officontributian in the
formation of this city.
ctalan^_musi^c,
^-dtalan and^paThis week Y .ou are invited to know t-.
anish prints made in Barcelona which is the publishUcapital of the
panish speaking world,ca talan art cocuing from thef city that for1:3
med Picasso, Dali, Miró and Tàpies, even catalan cooking-.wednesday
evening in the dinner that I wil have the pleasure to offer to you
Mr. President (Mr. Mason)
- Next Thúrsday we wi2l ptesent al,Ithe Súseua[:µof Modern Art the pro ject of rebulding the German pavihlion# designed ,by Mies V.t^n
der,
^., .
Rohe in 1929 for the World Fair,'of Barcelona
�3.
But even more important: next September, the annual lectures
of the "Barcelona-New-York Chatedra" will begin here at N.Y.U.
and
I
hope that the University of Barcelona will host annual -
lectures on the New York urban culture from september 84 on.
So, what are beginning to day is something permanent,
it '<.s
not,
just a show week.
f
Let me end, Mr. President daring to say tl^ it is not only in
our interest as citizens of the world to be present in the world
city but that it is also in your 3.nterest to be present in the
capital of the mediterranean w ich, after all is the origin of
our common history and civilization. Specially when Spain is
again in the way of helping the SpanislA. speaking world to build
a democratic model of social life.
It is in this context that Barcelona
require .
Thank you, Mr. President.
.is
glad to both offer and

Paraules de l'Alcalde a la recepció que l'Ajuntament de
Barcelona ofereix a personalitats del món cultural de Nova

MOMA, Nova York, 8.2.96
BENVOLGUTS SENYORS,
LA CIUTAT DE BARCELONA TÉ L'HONOR D'OFERIR A
TOTS VOSTÈS, DIGNES REPRESENTANTS DEL MON
CULTURAL DE LA CIUTAT DI NOVA YORK, AQUESTA
RECEPCIÓ AL MoMA, UN DEL LLOCS MÉS
EMBLEMÀTICS DE LA CULTURA NEOYORQUINA.
AMB AQUESTA RECEPCIÓ VOLEM D'UNA BANDA,
ESTRÈNYER ENCARA MÉS, SI ÉS POSSIBLE, ELS
LLAÇOS QUE DES DE FA MO T ANYS LES CIUTATS DE
NOVA YORK I BARCELONA MANTENEN, PERÒ
SOBRETOT VOLEM DONAR A CONÉIXER EL
PROJECTE CULTURAL QUÉ BARCELONA, COM A
CIUTAT CAPITAL DE LA CULTURA MEDITERRÁNIA, I
COM A
UNA DE LES PRINCIPALS CAPITALS
CULTURALS EUROPEES, *HA PROPOSAT DUR A
TERME A LES PORTES DEL SEGLE XXI.
LA CULTURA A BARCELONA HA ESTAT I ÉS UN DELS
ELEMENTS ESSENCIALS PEER AL DESENVOLUPAMENT
DE LA CIUTAT. LA CULTURA HA TINGUT SEMPRE UNA
PRESENCIA ACTIVA A TRAVÉS DE MÚLTIPLES
MANIFESTACIONS, LA QUAL COSA DENOTA UNA
EFERVESCENCIA CREATIVA PRÒPIA, QUE GAUDEIX
D'UN RECONEIXEMENT INTERNACIONAL.

EN EL DESENVOLUPAMENt D'AQUESTA ACTIVITAT
CULTURAL SEMPRE HA ESTAT VITAL EL TREBALL
CONJUNT DEL SECTOR PÚBILIC I PRIVAT QUE TANTS
BONS RESULTATS HA DONAT A LA CIUTAT, NO
NOMÉS EN L'ÀMBIT CULTURAL SINO EN TOTS
AQUELLS SECTORS D'ACTIVITAT QUE VAN
CONSTRUINT LA CIUTAT.
BARCELONA ÉS RECONEQUDA COM UNA GRAN
CIUTAT CULTURAL D'EUROPA. L'ARQUITECTURA I
L'URBANISME, LA CREACIÓ ARTÍSTICA, EL DISSENY I
LA MODA, QUE SEMPRE HAN TINGUT UN LLOC A
EUROPA, TORNEN A SEF MIRATS EN AQUEST
MOMENT AMB INTERÉS I ALGUNES VEGADES AMB
ADMIRACIÓ.
BARCELONA, COM A CIUTAT MOTORA EN CULTURA I
URBANITAT, ÉS ARA UN PUNT DE REFERENCIA A
EUROPA. A PARÍS, BERLÍN, AMSTERDAM, VIENA O
PRAGA. S'HA DESPERTAT UÑ RENOVAT INTERÉS PEL
QUE ES FA A LA CIUTAT.
I ARA BARCELONA VOL SER LA CAPITAL EUROPEA DE
LA CULTURA DE L'ANY 2001, I HA PRESENTAT UN
PROJECTE MOLT AMBICIOS PERQUÈ AQUESTA
CREATIVITAT DE LA QUAL ELS PARLO, AQUESTA
EFERVESCENCIA, NO S'ATURI.

LA IDEA DE DESIGNAR ANUALMENT UNA CIUTAT QUE
REPRESENTI LA CULTURA: EUROPEA VA SER DE
MELINA MERCOURI, UNA DONA D'IDEES
PROGRESSISTES, UNA DONA PROFUNDAMENT
GREGA 1, AL MATEIX TEMPS, PROFUNDAMENT
EUROPEA.
A MOLTES CIUTATS LA CAPITALITAT CULTURAL
EUROPEA ELS HA SERVIT ; COM A PRETEXT PER
IMPULSAR UNA TRANSFORMACIÓ DE LA CIUTAT O, SI
MÉS NO, ACCELERAR LA CONSTRUCCIÓ DE GRANS
INFRASTRUCTURES CULTURALS.
NOSALTRES TOT AIXÒ JA HO TENIM. BE JA HO TENIM
ENCARRILAT. ELS JOCS QLÍMPICS VAN SER EL
NOSTRE PRETEXT I EL VÀREM SABER APROFITAR.
ARA . SI VOLEM LA CAPITALITAT CULTURAL EUROPEA
ÉS PER OFERIR-NOS A EUROPA COM A ESCENARI NO
DE LA TRANSFORMACIÓ SINO DE L'AFIRMACIÓ D'UNA
CULTURA, D'UN LLENGUATGÉ EUROPEU COMÚ.
PER A NOSALTRES, ESDEVENIR OFICIALMENT LA
CAPITAL CULTURAL EUROPEA L'ANY 2001
SIGNIFICARÁ LA RATIFICACIjÓ, EL COROL.LARI D'UN
MODEL DE CIUTAT QUE EN IELS DARRERS ANYS HA
MOSTRAT LES SEVES VIRTUTS. UN MODEL DE CIUTAT
QUE INTEGRA, QUE NO SEGREGA, QUE ES RECONEIX
EN LA PLURALITAT I EN LA TOLERANCIA, EN LA
DIVERSITAT PERÒ TAMBÉ EN LA COHESIÓ I EN EL
CONSENS.

�BARCELONA DURANT MOLTS ANYS HA ESTAT
MANCADA DE LES INSTITUCIONS CULTURALS QUE
CORRESPONIEN A UNA CIUTAT DE LA SEVA AMBICIÓ I
DE LA SEVA CAPACITAT CREATIVA I DE PROJECCIÓ.
LA MODERNITAT ARTÍSTICA 1 QUE HA TINGUT EN LA
NOSTRA CIUTAT EXEMPLES TAN NOTABLES COM ELS
DE PICASSO, MIRÓ O DALÍ, NO S'HAVIA VIST
DEGUDAMENT REFLECTIDA EN LES SEVES
INSTITUCIONS ARTÍSTIQUES.
EN ELS DARRERS ANYS, SHAN INCREMENTAT LES
INFRESTRUCTURES CULTURALS GRÁCIES A
L'ESFORÇ CONJUNT DE LES ADMINISTRACIONS
PUBLIQUES I DE LA INICIATIVA PRIVADA.
L'OBERTURA DEL MUSEU PICASSO - EPISODI
SIGNIFICATIU SOTA EL RÉGIMANTERIOR- VA ANAR
SEGUIDA DE LA OBERTURA DE LA FUNDACIÓ MIRÓ I,
MÉS TARD, DE LA FUNDACIÓ TÁPIES. TOTS TRES
ESPAIS NO NOMÉS SÓN APARADORS PRIVILEGIATS
DE L'OBRA DE TRES ARTISTES DECISIUS DE L'ART
MODERN, SINÓ TAMBÉ LLOC 'S D'EXPOSICIÓ DE L'ART
CONTEMPORANI.
A BARCELONA, PERÒ, ENS CALIA UN MUSEU QUE
FOS UN LLOC DE DOCUME1VTACIÓ, DE REFLEXIÓ I
D'EXPOSICIÓ DE LART MESI NOU: UN IVUSEU D'ART
CONTEMPORANI. UN LLOC 1ESPECÍFIC PER PODER
ESTAR DEGUDAMENT REPRÉSENTATS EN AQUESTA
XARXA EUROPEA I MUNDIAL QUE ÉS L'ART

MOMA.MGA
�CONTEMPORANI, UN ART QUE GAIREBÉ. PER
DEFINICIÓ, NO TÉ FRONTER1S. TANT ELS CREADORS
LOCALS COM LA CIÜTAT, NECESSITAVEN
IMPERIOSAMENT AQUEST mysEu.
ES PER AIXÒ QUE, A MITJANS DELS ANYS VUITANTA,
ENS VAM POSAR EN CONTACTE, AQUÍ A NOVA YORK,
AMB L'ARQUITECTE RICHARD MEIER. ELL ÉS,
PROBABLEMENT,EL
MES
EUROPEU
DELS
ARQUITECTES NORD-AMERICANS. UN
CONSTRUCTOR DESTACAT DE MUSEUS. ALS QUALS
SAP DOTAR D'UNA FORTA PERSONALITAT.
I L'ANY PASSAT. RICHARD MEIER VA LLIURAR
L'EDIFICI DEL MUSEU D'ART CONTEMPORANI DE
BARCELONA A LA CIUTAT. PUC ASSEGURAR-VOS, ALS
QUI ENCARA NO Hl HEU ESTAT, QUE ÉS UN DELS
EDIFICIS CLÀSSICS MÉS IMPORTANTS QUE S'HA FET
A ESPANYA EN ELS DARRERS ANYS, I DIC CLÀSSIC
DELIBERADAMENT. L'EDIFICI;DE MEIER ÉS COM UNA
CATEDRAL LAICA, UN TEMPLE QUE US IMPRESSIONA
PER LA SEVA LLUMINOSITAT I LA SEVA DISTRIBUCIÓ
D'ESPAIS QUE, EN TOT MOMENT, SABEN GUARDAR
L'ESCALA HUMANA,
EL MUSEU SITUAT AL VELL MIG DEL BARRI DEL
RAVAL A LA CIUTAT VELLA, AL COSTAT DEL CENTRE
DE CULTURA CONTEMPORANIA DE BARCELONA,
INAUGURAT FA DOS ANYS ESTÀ AJUDANT A LA
REGENARACIÓ URBANA DEL10ENTRE DE LA CIUTAT INNERCITY- I IMPULSANT NOUS ESPAIS CULTURALS
QUE FA UNS ANYS NO ES I PODIEN IMAGINAR EN
�AQUEST EMPLAÇAMENT. L'ENTORN DEL MUSEU ESTÁ
VIVIN UNA PROFUNDA TRANSFORMACIÓ- LES
UNIVERSITATS OBREN CENTRE AL SEU COSTAT,
S'OBREN NOVES GALERIES D'ART, LLIBRERIES.
L'ACTUACIÓ ESTÁ TENINT UN GRAN IMPACTE EN UNA
ZONA QUE PODRIEM QUALIFICAR DE FRONTERERA I
QUE, SENS DUBTE, ESTÁ DEÍXANT DE SER-HO.
EL MUSEU FA TOT JUST DOS MESOS QUE HA OBERT
LES SEVES PORTES. ARA TÉ DAVANT EL REPTE I LA
ILLUSIC5 DE CONSTRUIR UNA COL.LECCIÓ 1 DEFINIR
UN PROGRAMA D'ACTIVITATS. TANT L'UNA COM LES
ALTRES SE CENTRARAN EN L'ART DELS DARRERS
QUARANTA ANYS, SENSE DEFUGIR ELS REFERENTS
HISTÒRICS DE LES AVANTGUARDES ,
JO VOLDRIA PENSAR QUE EL NOU MUSEU D'ART
CONTEMPORANI DE BARCELONA, EL MACBA, NO
NOMÉS S'EMMIRALLARÀ EN EL MUSEU D'ART
MODERN DE NOVA YORK (QUE HA ESTAT PER A
NOSALTRES SEMPRE UN REFERENT I UN ALTÍSSIM
EXEMPLE A SEGUIR) SINO, I SOBRETOT. QUE SABRÁ
TROBAR EN EL MoMA LA COLLABORACIÓ
NECESSÁRIA , UNA COLLÁBORACIÓ QUE JA HA
COMENÇAT, ATÉS QUE UNA DE LES VOSTRES
EXPOSICIONS ("LIGHT CONSTRUCTIONS" VIATJARÀ
AL MACBA AQUEST ESTIU) PERO QUE ESPERO QUE
CRE1XERÁ I S'ENFORTIRÀ EN EL FUTUR IMMEDIAT.
ÉS PER TOT AIXÒ QUE EN NOM DE LA CIUTAT DE
BARCELONA, VULL LLIURAR EL TÍTOL D'AMIGA DE
MOMA.MGA
�BARCELONA A LA PRESIDENTA DEL MoMA, AGNES
GUND.
UNA PERSONA QUE HA COL.LABORAT EN MOLTS
DELS PROJECTES CULTURALS DE BARCELONA
(PROGRAMA D'ESCULTURES AL CARRER) I QUE SÉ
QUE AQUÍ A NOVA YORK, FA D'AUTÉNTICA
AMBAIXADORA DE LA CIUTAT.
MOLTES GRÁCIES.

When I arrived in New York on September 7, 1971, I
rfealized that, for the first time in my life, the city I had come
to was exactly as I had imagined it. New York was as natural
as a mountain range you have seen a thousand times in
pictures or in dreams.
]! hesitate to say that the New School for Social Research
was exactly as I had expected, but it came close. My first
Surprise was precisely that the atmosphere of the Graduate
Faculty felt so familiar. However, my second surprise was a
result of the unfamiliar within the familiar: I discovered that
the necessary distance between two people was much
greater than it is in the Mediterranean culture, where people
are supposed to show friendliness by touching each other
while chatting or even when walking in the crowded streets.
[I came to this realization when I found that I had pursued
the admissions officer across the entire 40 meters of the
lobby, as I kept advancing to establish the right distance for
conversation and she kept retreating for the same reason.]

Now New York has lost a part of its skyline and its soul is
wounded. Yet the spirit of New York has come, even more
than before, to be the mirror of the spirit of the world, which
is also wounded—not by nature but by men's actions and by
men's failure to act.
Steve Hymer, my first professor of Political Economy,
explained to us what Claude Meillassoux and Karl Polanyi
had discovered: that primitive societies had been destroyed
by the market rather than by weapons, and that if trade was
Raturai, the market was not.
Tom Vietorisz asked us the first day what was worse: rural
poverty or urban poverty and we all said "urban." He said:
^You're wrong. In cities goods are so abundant that at least
you can steal." (A strange lesson for someone who would
later become a mayor.)

A whole new perspective was being opened to me, at the
Same time that I was discovering in real New York life that
markets matter and that kids know from the time they are
ten that interest rates exist. Both things are true: greed is
true, and so is the possibility of going beyond it.
but the really new thing I discovered was exchange. Mainly
exchange of ideas. In Spain if you were wise you didn't
intervene very much in debate, and people would think: "He
knows more than the rest." Here they would think: "This guy
doesn't know a thing." The motto was then, and still is, "You
have to give and take."
^ will never be grateful enough for what I learned here. You
taught me what social and economic life is all about. That it
is founded on exchange and has laws that must be
respected. Material laws and moral laws.

Please do not forget your origins. Do not forget you were the
haven where the School of Frankfurt sought refuge, just as
America had been the destination/refuge/shelter of the
population surpluses that crowded Europe in the 19th
Century.
Please do not forget your future, which is to be one of the
¿ornerstones of the European-American dialogue of the 21 st
Century, without which the world will have no future at all.

Conferència del president de la Generalitat, Pasqual
Maragall, a la New York University (anglès)
Nova York | 22/02/2006
Perhaps few peoples are better positioned than North Americans to understand what it is going on
today in Catalonia and in Spain, The entire conception of the State and of the Nation in the United
States is founded on the principle "E pluribus unum" a motto first proposed for the Great Seal of
the United States by Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Benjamin Franklin. "One from Many" :
the phrase declares the determination to form a single nation from a collection of states and, by
extension, a whole political body from a nation of immigrants.
Intrinsic to this is the dialogue between citizens and their governments about the limits of
governmental power, about the protection of individual rights and the requirements for the
common good -often translated into problems of taxation and representation-, and about where
power can best be exercised: at the level of the federal government, the state governments, the
municipalities, or the town hall.
These are familiar topics in the context of the United States. WE are less accustomed to thinking
about them in terms of Spain. But they are intrinsic to the distribution of power in Spain, as well.
For centuries, ever since the consolidation in the 16th century of a Spanish State identified with
the Spanish language, the Catholic Church and a strong centralized public administration located
first in Valladolid and ultimately in Madrid, this has also been the hidden issue that underlay
conflict after conflict, from the War of Succession in 1714 to the Civil War from 1936 - 1939.
Catalonia has always been at the forefront of this discussion. The will for self-determination of the
Catalan people dates at least from the 13th Century, when the Consell de Cent (Council of the
Hundred, or Senate) was established by Jaume I, James the First. As my dear friend Robert
Hughes writes in his beautiful love letter to Catalonia, titled "Barcelona", ["The Catalans'] sense of
exception ran back to the ideal of the ancient Roman republic, of the head of state as primus inter
pares, first among equals. To them, the count-king ruled by contract and not by divine right".
Robert goes on to quote the fiercely self-sufficient Catalan oath of allegiance to the king, to wit:
"We who are as good as you, swear to you, who are no better than we, to accept you as our king
and sovereign lord, provided you observe all our liberties and laws." And now comes the
clincher:"but if not, not".
It is this shared spirit of political liberties and governmental complexity that the Catalan people
have sought to rethink our Statute of Autonomy, after a period of twenty-five years of
unparalleled democratic stability and freedom. There are many misunderstandings with regard to
this process, some of which I hope to lay to rest today by answering your questions about the
process of political reform we have undertaken with passionate loyalty both to Catalonia and to
Spain, an idea of Spain in which all these questions can finally be resolved in the Parliament and
not on the battle field.
1. REFORMING TO IMPROVE
If you have been following the political news in the Spanish press in recent months and weeks,
you will have noticed that things are a bit "shaken up".
There is a considerable stand-off between President Zapatero and the main opposition party, the
Popular Party, which has generated a degree of political tension not commonly found in Western
politics.
You may have heard about economic stakeholders, intellectuals, the Catholic church. and even an
occasional military officer, all coming forth to state political opinions against the government!
Catalonia and the Catalan political parties as well as its President at centre stage of policy and
politics in Spain.
1
�You may have asked: What's happening in Spain? What's up with Catalonia?
Let us take a brief glance into the past.
Spain has been one of the most interesting political success stories in the Western world over the
last thirty years.
Four basic political "cleavages" marked its internal conflicts: the type of state in history (monarchy
versus republic); the relation between the state and the Catholic church; the degree of
modernization and liberalization of the Spanish economy; and finally, the territorial organization of
political power (centralism versus autonomism).
After Franco's death that unstable, conflict-ridden Spain came up with the democratic formula that
solve these problems. The 1978 carta magna established a constitutional monarchy with a social
market economy and a notably decentralized state. Our democracy was built up on a strong
devolution process, very close to what people use to call a federal system.
Since then, Spain has become a socially cohesive and economically developed country. Since it
joined the EU in 1986, Spain has become once again a significant player on the European scene.
We are growing now at 3.5%, three times the European average.
Even if it may seem paradoxical the foundations are being laid in Spain for a new stage in our
democracy, in which our federal system will be strengthened, our economic development will be
sustained, and, according to many sources, ETA's terrorism may well end forever.
I am certain of one thing: thanks to the reforms that are currently underway beginning with the
new Catalan Statute, Spain faces a future which will follow the history of social, economic, and
political progress of the last thirty years.
To explain this I would like to outline the following:
1.- The current political reform in Spain consists of a new "devolution" process which will complete
and expand the one already undertaken at the advent of democracy in 1978.
2.- This "new devolution" chiefly consists of, first, the recognition of the historic identity in some
autonomous communities -Catalonia, Basque Country and Galicia-, and, second, of an
improvement in the financing of these administrations.
3.- The political origins of this reform lie in Catalonia's requests in recent years.
We cannot view the Catalan reform outside the context of a consolidation of the State of the
Autonomous Communities. Let's talk about these two items.
2. REFORMING CATALONIA
What reasons have led Catalonia to propose the reform of its self-government?
One reason: To clarify and define the recognition of Catalonia's identity. The first article of the
proposed statute declares
"Catalonia is a nation". The Spanish Parliament will probably prefer to place this in the preambul
or introduction of the law. Big question left to the end of the debate.
Fourth Goal:-- Achieving a satisfactory and effective coordination of the three levels of
government and administration (state, autonomous community and city or local authority).
Fifth Goal:-- A partial reform of the way the autonomous communities are financed. Some of the
communities that contribute most, as is the case with Catalonia, lose competitiveness and suffer
under this system, as it happens in the European Union with Germany. A revision of this point in
no way implies the disappearance of the principle of financial solidarity with other parts of Spain.
[There is a tendency towards making collection of taxes devolved to the authorities.]
2
�Constitutionality and consensus
The draft for a new statute was approved by the parliament of Catalonia on Sept. 30th after 18
months of debate. It was supported by four of the five political factions represented in Catalonia's
parliament: the Partit dels Socialistes de Catalunya, the Catalan socialist party; Esquerra
Republicana de Catalunya, a party striving for independence; the Iniciativa per Catalunya Els
Verds, an alliance of greens and post-communists and CiU, the conservative nationalist federation
that governed Catalonia between 1980 and 2003. Only the Popular Party, which is a small party in
Catalonia -the fourth in votes-, voted against it. Of the 135 members of the Parliament of
Catalonia, 120 voted in favor of the new statute.
On Nov. 3rd, the Spanish parliament agreed to consider the Catalonian proposal. The vote on
whether or not to accept the proposal for consideration produced a result similar to the one in
Catalonia: All the political forces except for the Popular Party voted in favor.
Do not forget that the PP participated in the entire process within Catalonia, with a constructive
attitude.
Some people have turned Catalonia's proposal into a projectile weapon to spark open combat
between the opposition and the government.
However, Catalonia did not frame its proposal against anyone. In no way is it against Spain. Nor
is it against any of the autonomous communities. Catalonia would never approve any proposal
that would jeopardize the interests of Spain as a whole. The Catalan reform has already passed
the most difficult part of its journey.
3. THE PLURAL SPAIN
The Catalan reform does not end up in an improvement of Catalonia's self-governance. As
mentioned before, Catalonia opened a true new devolution process all around Spain. The ultimate
goal is the realization of the plural Spain, the federal Spain.
1.- I am confident, more than ever, that the plural Spain is a project adding political realism to
collective ambition.
a/ Realistic in its development: We must work with a constitution and charters that are
untouchable and within the limited scenario of the European Union's institutions.
b/ Ambitious in its objectives: it must satisfactorily fulfill the aspirations of the peoples of Spain for
this century.
2.- A general operating principle: the autonomous communities are part of the State, they are the
State - the Spanish state - and as such they must be treated with reciprocal loyalty.
At one point, there were attempts to distort this statement by implying that a different State was
being demanded. It is not true.
The goal is to put an end to the all too common and misleading impression distinguishing the
State from the autonomous governments.
For three decades, and as defined by the constitution, the state of Spain has meant three different
administrations: general, autonomous and local.
And not a single article nor provision establishes a vertical or moral hierarchy among them.
3.- One criterion: Recognition of difference
Difference does not mean inequality. Nor, obviously, privilege.
3
�The desire to uphold a balance between equality (of rights) and plurality (of identities) must lead
us to defend - without complexes, from a historical and cultural nation such as Catalonia:
- equality of competences
- and difference on a symbolic level.
Understanding that the core of the renewed constitutional agreement must consist of the historical
nationalities' accepting the spread of autonomous governments, equality of competences, and the
balance of the model, while at the same time the other communities recognize the plurinational,
pluricultural and plurilinguistic diversity of Spain and, as a result, the practical and symbolic
expressions of these differences.
Consequently, we assume that no community has the right to determine the others' ceiling of
competences.
- A constitutional formulation: Re-establishing the distinction between nationalities and regions
that defines the Constitution.
- A political culture: This reality, more complex, more compound, must be built upon the
foundation of loyalty.
Without reciprocal loyalty, without federal trust, no progress can be made in the new scenario.
We share common problems that must be dealt with and analyzed jointly. Only in this way will we
find effective solutions.
We knew from the very start it would not be easy. But it seems that the reform is gaining
momentum. Today it's Catalonia, and I hope the Land of Valencia, too. Tomorrow Andalusia and
Galicia will join, too. And in time other autonomies.
This is the major stake for the Spain of the 21st century to continue its advancement, with all the
guarantees, along a democratic pathway based on the values of equality, diversity and freedom.
Thank you very much.
