La Representació parlamentària catalana a les Corts republicanes (1931-1939): del catalanisme hegemònic i pragmàtic a la vinculació amb la política espanyola

Abstract

During the Second Spanish republic, especially just before the beginning of the Civil War (1936-1939), the parliamentary space played a very important role in the politics of the new State organization. At the Republic Parliament, from 1931 to the war sessions, the Catalan minorities developed an important position on political debates and government of the State. In this way, from an autonomous Catalonia, since 1931, the Catalan deputies, leaded by ERC and Lliga Regionalista, developed a complex nationalist position. That happened having as a base the connections of the Catalan and Spanish politics, the polarization of rights and lefts of Parliament argues. This means, connecting the Catalan nationalism to the development of Republic politics, and leaving apart the nationalist vindications.
