Description
Tornarem a vèncer
Book summary
In Tornarem a vèncer, Oriol Junqueras and Marta Rovira, the two leading figures of Esquerra Republicana, articulate a strategic roadmap from prison and exile to achieve the independence of Catalonia. Far from internal confrontation, the book is presented as a practical manual that addresses without hesitation the major debates that have marked Catalan politics: unilateralism, disobedience, and the construction of a winning social majority. A work of political reflection that offers proposals for the future and defines the republican strategy for a new push against the State.
What is it about?
Written by two authors from opposite life contexts (Lledoners prison and exile in Geneva), the book is a declaration of intent and a political action plan. Junqueras and Rovira clearly explain how the republicans want to prepare Catalonia for a confrontation scenario with the State that is definitively winning. The work does not avoid any of the debates that have divided the independence movement: it analyzes the tension between unilateralism and negotiation, the difference between civil and institutional disobedience, and the need to broaden the movement's social base. The text focuses exclusively on future proposals and concrete strategies, avoiding any kind of reproach or internal settling of scores.
Main themes

Editorial review
This is a political document of great interest for following the Catalan independence movement, as it captures the strategic vision of the top leaders of ERC at a key moment. Its value lies in the clarity with which future lines of action are presented and in the desire to avoid internal confrontation to focus on concrete proposals. It is an essential read for understanding the direction that the republicans want to give the sovereignty process.
