Miquel Roca Junyent defends the current Constitution, not as a father, but convinced that it still has a journey (Xavier Cervera)
Miquel Roca denies that anyone was pointing to him when in 1977 he wrote articles of the Constitution and says that the only pressure he remembers to have felt was that of the people. Then he had just been elected deputy in Parliament for Barcelona and presided over the so-called Catalan parliamentary group in Congress. Currently, he is dedicated to legal advice through his office and works as a professor of Constitutional Law at UPF. From his privileged watchtower, Roca believes that only the article that talks about the Senate would have to be changed, because it has not worked, but he is convinced that a large part of the problems attributed to the Constitution are the fault of only those who apply it.
.... What is missing in the current leaders who had the companions fathers of the Constitution?
You have to have very little plot strength if you have to take refuge in the insult. We are obliged to try to solve the problems of the whole world, and that requires agreement. There is nothing that can be done outside the agreement in a plural society.
....Why has the Constitution gone from being a successful project to being singled out as a key piece of the current institutional crisis?
Not everything is the Constitution's fault. It is the fault of those who apply it or interpret it. Are the insults that we have been seeing in Congress fault of the Constitution? Who wears the institutions? The insults or the Constitution? Recover good practices and seek the consensus that gives life to the constitutions. Democracy can be won in a day, but it is built every day.
