On September 27th 2015, Catalonia held an election in which the largest number of seats and votes went to a coalition campaigning on the platform of Catalan independence. If it is able to form a majority government, this coalition has promised it would initiate a process of unilateral disassociation from Spain. The talk traces the evolution of recent Catalan and Spanish politics that led to this point. It situates the Catalan case in the context of other independence movements, pointing to its unique characteristics and implications for political practice and theory alike.
