A propósito de un libro reciente sobre la Transición en Navarra: Juan-Cruz Alli Aranguren y Joaquín Gortari Unanua, La Transición política en Navarra, 1979-1982

Abstract

In this article are weighted contributions relating to the analysis of the transition in Navarra by Joaquín Gortari Unanua and Juan Cruz Alli Aranguren in a recent book. In relation to the narrative of the FASA issue carried out by the first of the authors, we add data provided with the reference to the relations between the main protagonists, and we highlight the shortcomings of the Navarre institutions in the «last franquismo» and in the immediately subsequent period. About the reconstruction of the process of improvement of the «Fuero», made by Juan Cruz Alli, we complete with informations about his proposals since 1976, the decisive role of Jaime Ignacio del Burgo Tajadura as a ideologue of it. The weight of the parallel negotiations carried out by Jaime Ignacio del Burgo, available by his relations with the UCD at state level and with the Government of Madrid, despite having been excluded from the Negotiating Committee Navarre, is also confirmed.
