The cover historic special edition of El País of February 23, 1981, in which the paper came out in defense of the Constitution against the assault of a group of military coup Congress, presided over the conference Juan Luis Cebrian, PRISA president and first editor of the newspaper (1976-1988) at the Faculty of law at the University at all times from Madrid. “The only way to return to defend today the Constitution is to reform it, or if she is not dead,” said Cebrián attendees, on Wednesday in a ceremony that served to commemorate 40 years of the newspaper, held in 2016
“we live in confusing days when the Constitution seems threatened again, even more insidiously than before,” said Cebrian. “Given the repeated immobility about and what Felipe González called liquidationism other, is precisely the will to reform that allows us to contemplate the future with the hope that better than the past few days,” he said.
However, political parties are engaged in a long process of government formation, which are showing a “incompetence and lack of professionalism worrisome,” thereby losing the time to begin to address reforms needed emergency. And consensus.
Because unlike two priorities that could tackle alone the resulting government, as the consolidation of economic growth and the fight against social inequality, said the founder of El Pais, there is a third: the response to challenge Catalan independence, “whose solution involves constitutional reforms, which require the collaboration of all the parliamentary spectrum without exception and unique way of the four major parties and nationalist groups.”
