The phenomenon of border in the context of development of relations between the Kingdom of Spain and its autonomous region of Catalonia

This work analyzes a conflict between Spain and its autonomous region of Catalonia; we appeal to context of phenomenon of identitary borders and emotional bordering, with using a border studies methodology. The article characterizes signs and symbols - both tangible and intangible - on the basis of which the Catalans identify themselves as a nation with ambitions to have their own state or to federalize the Kingdom of Spain. Work also describes historical and current context of struggle between Madrid and Barcelona (economical, political, cultural). In the last part we accentuate four scenarios of potential evolution of relations between Spain and Catalonia..
