Abstract

The new Statute of Autonomy of Catalonia (2006) foresees the creation of vegueries, a new political entity at the local level with the dual role to replace the provincial governments and to become the space of peripheral government action of the Generalitat. It is still undefined the fitting of this new entity within the state provinces. At the moment the territorial planning and a great part of the peripheral administration of the Generalitat are organized in seven areas, while the state maintains unaltered the organization in four provinces. This paper analyzes the historical precedents of the contemporary jurisdictions and in particular the debate and development of 9 regions during the time of the republican Generalitat (1931-1939). It is also pointed out the significant intellectual contribution of Enric Lluch in order to reform and simplify of vegueries map (from 9 to 7). It is brought up also the cumbersome transition from the idea of the single province to the approach of an increase in the number of provinces- vegueries.
