Abstract

This work aims to analyze the communication made on Twitter by the political parties with representation in the Parliament of Catalonia and their respective leaders in the context of the self-determination referendum of October 1, 2017, one of the moments in which the Procés received more relevance.

The political parties presented a greater activity on Twitter, however, they achieved little diffusion capacity. They gave it a preferably informative and institutional use, while its leaders transmitted their opinions and ideology. Of all the profiles analyzed, Puigdemont's was the one that generated the greatest interest and achieved the greatest influence.
