What do Catalans think about independence?

The institute of political science at the Universitat Autonoma publishes an annual poll of opinions in Catalunya on a wide range of topics. Here’s a couple things I found interesting in the 2009 poll. One thing that shocked me was that 68% of people in Catalunya have at least one parent that is from outside Catalunya.

Question 23: Do you believe Catalunya should be a:

Region of Spain	4%
Autonomous community in Spain (status quo)	48%
A state in a federal Spain	20%
An independent state	21%

Question 24: How important is the debate around the shape of the state to you?

Very important	12%
Somewhat important	42%
Little important	30%
Unimportant	12%

question 37: what does “Spain” mean to you?

My country	23%
A nation of which I am a member	6%
A state of which I am a citizen	21%
A state that consists of different nations and regions	37%
A foreign state that my country belongs to	10%

question 47: where were you born:

Catalunya	61%
Andalusia	10%
Rest of Spain	11%
Foreign	18%

question 50: where were your parents born:

Both in Catalunya	32%
Both outside Catalunya	55%
One in and one outside	13%
