Three academic researchers write about the heritage of the person who has shaped Barcelona as we know it today: its former mayor, Pasqual Maragall. A visionary European who knew how to project the city internationally via the Olympic Games. A committed pacifist who supported and helped shape the peace process in the Balkans. Maragall was a driving force of city diplomacy and decentralised cooperation in the Mediterranean. The book contains a series of memories and reflections on his work and worldview.
If you want to understand the contributions the Mediterranean cultural space has made in favour of the European integration process, Maragall is a person you definitely shouldn’t miss out. For more information on his legacy, you can also follow the work of his foundation ‘Catalunya Europa‘
