Abstract

The Spanish decentralisation process was the result of ideologically non-coinci-dental and sometimes even conflicting tendencies which meant that the final implementa-tion of the constitutional provisions depended to a large extent on political decisions and party pacts which, on more than one occasion, resulted in regulatory changes of unques-tionable importance. The process that led to the approval of the Galician Statute and the constitution of the corresponding Autonomous Community was, as this text aims to explain, an outstanding example of the aforementioned twists and turns: Galicia should have gai-ned access to autonomy through a privileged route that at the time, although unsuccessfu-lly, attempted to denaturalise itself, an attempt that would end up having a great influence on the definitive definition of the Spanish autonomous framework.
