The Contribution of the Schools to the Restoration of Regional Autonomy in Spain.
McNair, John
Comparative Education, v16 n1 p33-44 Mar 1980
Since Franco's death in 1975, one of Spain's most pressing problems has been how to encourage regional autonomy without destroying national unity. This paper considers how two regional groups--the Catalans and the Basques--are using the schools to promote use of their traditional languages and to strengthen ethnic identity. (Author/SJL)
