On the 30 October, at 18:30, the Aula Magna of La Nau hosts the debate ‘Modelos de Estado para España’ (‘State moldels for Spain’), with Santiago Muñoz Machado, Professor of Administrative Law of the Complutense University of Madrid; Jordi Sevilla, economist and former minister for Public Administrations; and Joan Ridao, professor of Constitutional Law and Political Science of the University of Barcelona and former general secretary of ERC.
The event, which could be followed live on MediaUni (http://mediauni.uv.es/tv), will be presented and moderated by Josep Torrent, delegate from El País in the Valencian Community, and will be part of the Claustre Obert programming, the space for debating created by the University of Valencia, through the office of the Vice-Principal for Culture and Equality, and the newspaper El País, in order to analyse the most relevant issues on society, culture and economics nowadays.
As it is usual in Claustre Obert, after the debate it will begin a round of questions and interventions from the audience to share opinions, in this occasion, on which one is the State model for Spain: going back to centralism, keeping the current system of autonomous communities, replacing the current model by a federate State or the self-determination and independence of the historic nationalities.
All the speakers had recently made contributions on the model for the Spanish State: Santiago Muñoz Machado, ‘Informe sobre España. Repensar el estado o destruirlo’ (‘Report on Spain. Rethinking the state or destroying it’) (Crítica, 2012); Jordi Sevilla, ‘Vertebrando España’ (‘Providing a backbone for Spain’) (Biblioteca Nueva, 2009) y the text published by the Círculo de Empresarios ‘El salto (a la necesaria eficiencia) federal’ (‘The change to the necessary federal efficiency’); and Joan Ridao, ‘Catalunya i Espanya, l’encaix impossible’ (‘Catalonia and Spain, the impossible adaptability’) (Proa 2011), in addition of being co-author of ‘Pactar para gobernar’ (‘Agreeing to rule’) (Tirant lo blanc, 2012) and ‘Sistema politico español’ (‘Spanish Political system’) (Huygens, 2012).
