Horizontal cooperation and financial relations in Spain: An analysis on how the Autonomous Communities set the agenda for the reform of territorial financing
The Spanish territorial financing system approved in 2009 was set to expire in 2014. However, the central government and the Autonomous Communities have so far been unable to forge an agreement that would give birth to a new system.

| description |
The Spanish territorial financing system approved in 2009 was set to expire in 2014. However, the central government and the Autonomous Communities have so far been unable to forge an agreement that would give birth to a new system. The political instability with four elections in less than five years, the crisis in Catalonia, and then the pandemic have hindered an already complex process. This study aims at investigating how the different Autonomous Communities have tried to set the agenda before engaging in negotiations with the central government in the Fiscal and Financial Policy Council (CPFF) to discuss a new agreement. To this end, it will examine the different positions held by the Autonomous Communities, placing a particular interest on how these have grouped, regardless of their political affiliation. The solution to establish several common fronts among ACs with the same needs/goals constitutes a novelty in Spanish politics which is worth exploring. Thus, the study analyzes the role played by horizontal intergovernmental cooperation in the agenda setting process prior to the start of formal negotiations on a new system at the CPFF, with the aim to determine its usefulness and effectiveness in influencing the central government at the negotiating table.

Sin embargo, el Gobierno central y las comunidades autónomas han sido incapaces de forjar un acuerdo que dé lugar a un nuevo sistema. La inestabilidad política con cuatro elecciones en menos de cinco años, la crisis en Cataluña y la pandemia han dificultado un proceso ya de por sí complejo. Este estudio pretende investigar cómo las diferentes comunidades autónomas han tratado de marcar la agenda antes de entablar negociaciones con el Gobierno central en el Consejo de Política Fiscal y Financiera (CPFF) para discutir un nuevo acuerdo. Para ello, se examinan las diferentes posiciones mantenidas por las CC. AA, prestando atención a cómo estas se han agrupado, independientemente de su adscripción política. La solución de establecer varios frentes comunes entre CC. AA. con las mismas necesidades/objetivos constituye una novedad en la política española que merece ser explorada. Así, el estudio analiza el papel desempeñado por la cooperación horizontal en el proceso de fijación de la agenda antes del inicio de las negociaciones formales sobre un nuevo sistema en el CPFF, con el objetivo de determinar su utilidad y eficacia para influir en el gobierno central en la mesa de negociación.2023text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=8878602(Revista) ISSN 0048-7694Revista de estudios políticos, ISSN 0048-7694, Nº 199, 2023, pags. 133-164engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
