¿Reforma constitucional en clave federal? (Sistematización de problemas generados por las reformas y posibles soluciones). | ||

The process of statutory reform, commencing with the reform of the Catalonian Statute of Autonomy, has been the subject of numerous studies and reflexions. Although these reforms have yet to be finalised, it is true to say that the Constitutional Court’s decision on the aforementioned Statute allows and obliges us to come to far reaching conclusions with respect to the future. Above and beyond the fact that the existing model has been approved by some new, second generation Statutes, while not by others, relations between Catalonia and the rest of Spain have been shown to be problematic, and the Constitutional Court has had to be brought in to respond to this. Constitutional reform would appear to be necessary both for an improved organisation of political decentralisation, and as a solution to problems arising from nationalist sensibilities. | ||
