THE ARTICLE DEALS with the issue of the sources of nationalism in the Spanish region of Galicia. The presented analysis aims at explaining the reasons for its specific evolution. Thus, there are presented historic and cultural grounds being a foundation of all nationalist tendencies as well as other factors influencing their development. It also emphasizes that the lack of economic stimuli effected in weak institutionalization of nationalist movements. Basing on the research conducted by the Political and Social Science Institute in Barcelona, there may be drawn an interesting conclusion that national identity of the Galicians is equally a regional (Galician) identity as the national (Spanish) one. Most inhabitants of Galicia opt for autonomy within the Spanish state – as it is now.
