Abstract:
Spain has been known for several years for its ethnic and separatist debate. This work aims to examine the extent to which the potential for conflict in Spain as a whole can also be found on a small scale, i.e. in one of Spain's autonomous communities. The largest autonomous community in terms of area, Castilla y León, which also consists of the most provinces, was chosen for this purpose. It is questionable whether such strong autonomy movements exist not only in Spain but also in Castilla y León. Do certain isms exist or are they just purely theoretical scientific concepts? This paper attempts to examine and fill a scientific gap on this topic by means of an adapted quantitative survey. From 2020 and 2023, these surveys have been conducted in Castilla y León. They are analysed by descriptive statistics. The paper concludes with a Conclusion and the bibliography.
