Abstract:

This article explores the changes that have taken place in public opinion preferences with respect to the model of political organisation in Spain following the last wave of statutory reforms. The article is based on data collected from surveys carried out by the Centre for Sociological Research between 2002 and 2010 and aims primarily to detecting the extent to which the preference for a model of decentralisation, such as that which currently exists (and which is referred to as the “status quo” throughout the article) has undergone major changes during the period of analysis, and in which autonomous communities. The article concludes that simultaneous to the statutory reforms there have been major changes in public perception of the “institutional goodwill” that exists in the current institutional model of decentralisation and self-government. Specifically, while some communities under the current model have begun to question why it cannot adapt to some of the more ambitious expectations of self-government, in other communities the present model has been questioned precisely for the opposite reason: to understand why the current model of political decentralisation has gone too far. So for the first time in some of the autonomous communitiesthe preference for self-government involution (i.e., preference for centralism and cuts in self-government powers) is greater than that expressed in the current decentralisation model.
