Summary

"Beginning with an overview of the region's long history, Kenneth McRoberts focuses on the last two decades - the period in which the Catalan government has secured some degree of autonomy within the Spanish state, pursued its own political and economic linkages within the European Community, and worked not only to make Catalan the main language of primary education, but to promote its use in other spheres."--Jacket.
