Catalonia: A New Independent State in Europe?
Catalonia: A New Independent State in Europe examines the main issues of the political process which is taking place in Catalonia today. The political confrontation between the Spanish and Catalan institutions has now reached the international arena, especially the debates concerning international recognition of a new Catalan state and its membership of the European Union (EU) and other international institutions. There are no precedents for the secession of a region from an EU member country that could be applied to the case of Catalonia. Therefore, it is not surprising that the world has many unanswered question about the process. This volume aims to provide answers to many of these questi...
Com Àustria o Dinamarca
Ara mateix Catalunya és un país poc competitiu, molt endeutat i amb un excessiu nombre d'aturats. La independència no resoldria tots aquests problemes de manera automàtica, però permetria disposar dels recursos i els instruments de política econòmica necessaris per a l'objectiu al qual ha d'aspirar el país: una societat cohesionada i pròspera. Per arribar-hi, el model espanyol no és la via i, per als autors, la referència lògica que cal mirar ve del nord. Vuit països europeus de dimensions comparables a Catalunya —Àustria, Bèlgica, Dinamarca, Finlàndia, Noruega, els Països Baixos, Suècia i Suïssa—, són dels més avançats del món socialment i econòmicament. De tots ...
Sense Espanya
La qüestió de la independència de Catalunya es troba a primera línia del debat polític popular. La sentència del Tribunal Constitucional espanyol sobre l'Estatut aprovat en referèndum s'ha interpretat de manera gairebé unànime com el tancament d'una època.Per primer cop es planteja seriosament la decisió de separar-se d'Espanya, un projecte de dimensions colossals que obre molts interrogants. D'una banda, s'aconseguiria l'eliminació del dèficit fiscal, però de l'altra, la possibilitat d'un boicot comercial espanyol sobre les empreses catalanes genera inquietud entre els empresaris i treballadors catalans.Modest Guinjoan i Xavier Cuadras han fet un exercici d'economia aplicada, rigorós i divulgatiu, que porta llum a aquests i altres interrogants que obre la situació actual.
Comparative Election Law
This timely research handbook offers a systematic and comprehensive examination of the election laws of democratic nations. Through a study of a range of different regimes of election law, it illuminates the disparate choices that societies have made concerning the benefits they wish their democratic institutions to provide, the means by which such benefits are to be delivered, and the underlying values, commitments, and conceptions of democratic self-rule that inform these choices.
Catalonia
"Catalonia: the struggle over independence offers an overview of Catalonia's political, cultural and economic life and its relations with the rest of Spain. It shows how Catalonia has long displayed the characteristics of a nation: distinct language and culture, separate social and political institutions, and a strong collective identity. At the same time, Catalonia has been one of Spain's primary centres of economic dynamism and innovation. As such, it is an especially striking instance of "minority' or 'internal' nations within a larger political order. During the Franco years, the Spanish state made a concerted effort to eliminate Catalonia's national characteristics. Subsequently, as it ...
Research Handbook on Secession
Combining both theoretical and practical insights, the Research Handbook on Secession addresses a wide range of legal issues and concepts surrounding secessions. It considers both well-known examples such as Kosovo and Bangladesh alongside less frequently discussed cases including Somaliland and Palestine. The Research Handbook offers state-of-the-art analysis of international law on – among other topics – statehood, secession, self-determination, as well as comparative constitutional perspectives.
Money, Payments, and Liquidity, second edition
A new edition of a book presenting a unified framework for studying the role of money and liquid assets in the economy, revised and updated. In Money, Payments, and Liquidity, Guillaume Rocheteau and Ed Nosal provide a comprehensive investigation into the economics of money, liquidity, and payments by explicitly modeling the mechanics of trade and its various frictions (including search, private information, and limited commitment). Adopting the last generation of the New Monetarist framework developed by Ricardo Lagos and Randall Wright, among others, Nosal and Rocheteau provide a dynamic general equilibrium framework to examine the frictions in the economy that make money and liquid assets...
