A chapter in The Strategic Management of Place at Work, 2023, pp 39-58 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Catalonia, located in Spain and home to Barcelona, contributes to Europe’s import and export trade. While specializing in tourism and diverse industries, Catalonia hosts cruise lines, several local and international colleges, and over seven million inhabitants. We elaborate on the infrastructure and dynamics of this country. The main problems of Catalonia focus on unemployment and citizens’ independence. To tackle these issues, we provide an in-depth analysis of the current initiatives and policy measures undertaken by the regional government, highlighting potential strategies such as targeted employability, addressing the independence movement, as well as enhancing resilience due to exogenous shocks.
