MODEL REGIONALIZACIJE KRALJEVINE ŠPANJOLSKE. (Croatian)

REGIONALIZATION MODEL OF THE KINGDOM OF SPAIN. (English)

At a political moment when the European Union is perceived as a specific political organisation of complex multilayered system of government which prevails all national and minority problems, tendencies of inner identity and political stir occurred at some member states. Spain represents an exceptional example of recent political instability produced due to the announcement of referendum about the potential independence of Catalonia. Economical crisis which has hit Spain is most certainly a catalyst of these tendencies, but it surely is neither only nor decisive factor of a political request of independence or at least greater autonomy within Spain. The latter has a long history of conflicts between centralist and regional-federalist traditions, and its identity complexness does not fit into centralist system of government and political territorialisation. That is why the challenge of Spanish regional model, its issues and requests of revision is so important subject which demands careful examination of various aspects which this model implies. This papers goal is not a comprehensive analysis of Spanish regional formation, but a brief section of its most important newly reaffirmed elements, and their placement into appropriate theoretical models for easier understanding and interpretation.

U političkome trenutku kada se Europska unija percipira kao specifična politička organizacija kompleksnoga multirazinskog sustava vlasti koji prevladava nacionalne i manjinske probleme, pojavile su se tendencije unutarnjega identitetskog i političkog komešanja kod pojedinih država članica. Španjolska predstavlja izuzetan primjer recentne političke nestabilnosti proizvedene uslijed najava referendumskih izjašnjavanja građana Katalonije o potencijalnoj neovisnosti. Ekonomska kriza koja je pogodila Španjolsku zasigurno je katalizator spomenutih tendencija, ali nipošto jedini ili odlučujući faktor u političkome zahtjevu za neovisnošću ili barem povećanom autonomijom unutar Španjolske. Potonja ima dugu povijest sukobljavanja centralističkih i regionalno-federalističkih tradicija, a njezina identitetska kompleksnost nipošto ne odgovara centralističkomu sustavu vlasti i političke teritorijalizacije. Stoga su izazovnost tematike španjolskoga regionalnog modela, njegova problematika i zahtjevi za revidiranjem suviše važna tematika koja zahtijeva pažljivo proučavanje mnoštva aspekata koje ovaj model podrazumijeva. Ovaj rad nema namjeru sveobuhvatne analize španjolskoga regionalnog ustrojstva, već kratak presjek najznačajnijih elemenata koji su reaktualizirani u novijim događajima te njihovo smještanje u odgovarajuće teorijske modele radi lakšega razumijevanja i interpretacije.
