Description

The constitution file of the Provisional Government of the Generalitat of Catalonia, between April 16, 1931 and September 20, 1934, is a fundamental document for understanding the Catalan institutional renaissance in the framework of the Second Republic. This set of documents covers the formation of the Council of the Generalitat, its structure and operation, and reflects the collective hope for a democratic and autonomous regime. It is part of the themes of politics and governance, and shows how Catalonia recovered its own institutions with a desire for modernization, participation and self-governance, in line with the processes of autonomy experienced in other regions of Europe.
