Framing the Relationship Between Catalonia and Spain

Abstract

The specific objective of this article is to analyze the different ways in which each of the four main political parties addresses the question of relations between Catalonia and Spain in its electoral messages. That is, we analyze whether and how each of the political parties represented in the Catalan Parliament confronts this question, how they define their starting position, the goals of the party, the goals of the country (whether Catalonia or Spain), and the means of meeting them.
