Abstract
El presente trabajo aborda la actitud del PSOE respecto a la cuestión nacional en el País Valenciano desde una perspectiva que intenta abarcar el comportamiento mostrado en relación con este asunto, tanto por estructura federal, como por las Federaciones valencianas. El periodo que engloba esta investigación se inicia con la renovación socialista de 1974, año en el que el PSOE se declaró favorable al derecho de autodeterminación y abogó por un modelo federal, y finaliza con el primer tercio de 1978, cuando el PSOE-PV presidió el Consell Preautonómic del País Valencià. El País Valenciano ofrece una complejidad singular, ya que se trata de un lugar con peculiaridades históricas y culturales reseñables en el que el nacionalismo valencianista cobró una acusada importancia durante el periodo señalado, pero en el que la voluntad nacional e incluso la autonómica de la población fueron cuestionadas hasta que, a finales de 1977, la manifestación organizada para el Dia Nacional del País Valencià, convenció a la mayor parte del espectro político de lo contrario. En este sentido, se intenta observar cómo se encaró la cuestión identitaria desde el partido mencionado; cómo se articuló lo regional y lo nacional en su discurso; y cómo formuló su idea de nación, de España y del País Valenciano.
This paper addresses the attitude of the Spanish Socialist Party (PSOE) in relation to the national issue in the Valencian Country, from a perspective that tries to consider the response both of the federal structure and the Valencian Federation to the problems involved. The period covered goes from the Socialist Party renewal in 1974, when the PSOE declared itself in favor of the right to self-determination and advocated a federal model, until April 1978, when the PSOE-PV presided over the Consell Preautonomic of the Valencian Country. The Valencian Country offers a singular complexity due to its remarkable historical and cultural peculiarities. Valencian nationalism became especially important during the above-mentioned period when the national and even autonomic will of the population was questioned. This lasted until the end of 1977, when the demonstration organized for the National Day of the Valencian Country, convinced most of the political spectrum otherwise. In this sense, the chapter analyses how the identity issue was addressed from the Party, how it articulated the regional and the national elements in its discourse, and how it formulated its idea of nation, of Spain and of the Valencian Country.
