Nobody is up for adventures, to the point that pro-independence parties have rejected the unilateral declaration of independence (DUI) and have talked during the election campaign about negotiating funding or infrastructure. And only occasionally, with small mouths and without quite believing it, have they suggested that, in the end, the Spanish Government will accept a consultation. The term DUI has been used so little, that Ignacio Garriga, the Vox candidate, made a mistake in one of the rallies and spoke of preventing by all means an IUD, the term by which the intrauterine device is known, nothing to do with the separation from Spain.
Some analysts say that Catalans are already living in the era of the post-process, not only because the current pardons and amnesty have eased the pressure on sovereignty, but because both ERC and Junts are to negotiate improved funding and more powers . His slogans of “on the side of the people” and “good government” are not exactly disruptive invitations, but pragmatic announcements. And if that wasn’t enough, Carles Puigdemont has vindicated Jordi Pujol and highlighted his legacy. In Junts there is a desire to place the party in the center again: the speech of Josep Rull, who has replaced the former president in the electoral debates, recalled that of Pujolist Catalanism. Not all the formation travels along the same path, but it is clear that the dome is beginning to mark a more realistic path.
Independenceists will not stop being so overnight and the will to have their own State will remain alive even if sedated. The Process doesn’t feel like it should have a second season. This series does not give for more and possibly the audience already knows all the tricks of the screenwriters. As in the cartoons, you can put the legend That’s all folks! (This is over), although knowing that if the central government (this one and the next ones) does not understand this desire for recognition of the Catalan identity, the problems could resurface. The actor Robert Knepper warned in an episode of the series Prison break: “We are captives of our identities”.
