Abstract

Ujedinjeno Kraljevstvo je formalno unitarna država, no ona od 1998. provodi devoluciju ovlasti sa središnjeg parlamenta na Škotsku, Wales i Sjevernu Irsku. Takvim procesom te povijesne regije dobivaju sve veći stupanj autonomije, što dovodi do jačanja regionalne svijesti i regionalizma. Devoluciju u Ujedinjenom Kraljevstvu karakterizira asimetričnost, što znači da svaka država ima različit stupanj prava i ovlasti. Takve razlike posljedica su različitog načina i vremena ulaska Walesa, Škotske i Sjeverne Irske u Ujedinjeno Kraljevstvo. U ovome radu je naglasak na separatizmu u UK, koji je rezultat ovakvih razlika. Separatizam označava najvišu razinu regionalističkih zahtjeva odnosno odcjepljenje dijela teritorija određene države ili priključenje nekoj postojećoj državnoj cjelini.

Abstract (english)

The United Kingdom is formally a unitary state, but since 1998 it has been devolving powers from the central parliament to Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Through such a process, these historical regions gain an increasing degree of autonomy, leading to the strengthening of regional awareness and regionalism. Devolution in the UK is characterized by asymmetry which means each of the three devolution settlements involve varying levels of power. The way in which Wales, Scotland and Ireland became part of union differed greatly, in terms of timing and circumstances, and because of that there are such differences between them. In this paper, the emphasis is on separatism in the UK, which is the result of such differences. Separatism means the highest level of regionalist demands, ie the secession of a part of the territory of a certain state or joining an existing state unit.
