Independence movements in Western Europe have recently called the stability of some states into question. In Scotland, a narrow majority eventually chose to remain in the UK. The Catalan demand for a similar referendum, on the other hand, was consistently rejected by the Spanish state. Our book answers the following questions: When, how and why did the long non-separatist Catalan national movement turn to independence? Is it about language, identity, money, or democracy? What role do immigrants play in this? What alternative solutions are conceivable? How does Europe react, like Germany? Is there a way to independence? And finally: Would an independent Catalonia be viable? The editors of this volume Stephan Rixen (law, University of Bayreuth) and Klaus-Jürgen Nagel (political science, Universitat Pompeu Fabra) represent two of the disciplines dedicated to such questions. However, other economic and social sciences are also represented in this volume.
