Just came back from a holiday there: Basque independence movement. The Basque have their own language, culture, socio-economic vision so I see no reason why I shouldn't support them wanting to become independent from Spain and France.
Just curious, what are your thoughts on Catalonia independence?
I'm not who you are replying to, but here's a fun fact: years ago I did some research on the International Brigades that required pulling out documents from the SOVDOC.
One of these was the record of a political discussion in 1936-37 between members of a communist unit that included Catalonian independentists, about the question of self-determination for Spain's various nationalities. The meeting ended with a recommendation of Stalin's Marxism and the National Question as a read for the unit's members and the decision that the text's conclusions was the way of thought to follow.
To this day, I still recommend that one text to anyone who wishes to know how to proceed ideologically in regards to any movement for national independence, including Catalonia's.
Thanks for the reading recommendation -- I was just wondering if there's some good theory on essentially what degree of local control is best/what type of independence or autonomy should be supported.
Yeah same. I was wary of mentioning it because it's like what the ukrainian workers and people are defending right now and that's not viewed in a good light here.
