HiperCatalunya thus seeks to reflect and to stimulate reflection on the authentic territorial dimension of Catalonia by formulating, through theoretical and practical approaches, four main areas of analysis, reflection and venturing, understood as operative frameworks but also as strategic layers of action, aimed at anticipating and visualizing possible key questions for a future development of the territory"--V.1, back cover.
