This volume unifies contributions from outstanding scholars devoted to study the cultural, historical, political and social cohesion and continuity of Catalonia. From different perspectives (languages, art, law, social and political history) they draw a new explicative line, from the Middle Ages to the 20th century, paying special attention to innovative tools such as social perception, political representativeness and cultural cohesion.

The book derives from an European Science Foundation project about the cohesion of European regions developed between 2010 and 2013. Flocel Sabaté led into this framework a team of fourteen scholars looking for the reason of the cohesion and permanence of Catalonia from Middle Ages to current days. This collective book arrives at an updated explanation, far from neoromantic visions and attentive to social vectors, such as socioeconomical convergence, external and internal perception, social representation, institutional development, creation of a justificative discourse and influence of the law, the language, the art and other cultural items.

Flocel Sabaté is professor of Medieval History in the University of Lleida (Catalonia, Spain), member of Institut d’Estudis Catalans and related to the academies of History of Spain, France and the United States. He has served as invited professor at the universities of Paris-I, Poitiers, México, Yale and Cambridge, and is doctor honoris causa by the Universidad Nacional de Cuyo (Argentina).
