Abstract: The shape of present-day Spain is determined by actions heading towards prevention of the country’s disintegration into a large number of small political formations. In accordance with the Constitution, State of Autonomies was designed to consolidate the country, with a simultaneous decision to gradually decentralize and delegate power among newly created Autonomous Communities. As a result, the so-called “asymmetry” may be observed in the process of transferring responsibilities and fiscal entitlements to regional governments. Some regions, namely those with more experience in self- governing, obtained immediately a high level of responsibilities, while others gradually increased them for years. The process of public power devolution between regions in Spain provides an excellent example for Poland.
