autonomismo

Autonomismo is a political philosophy emphasizing regional or local self-governance within a larger nation. It advocates for granting specific areas, such as regions or communities, greater control over their own affairs, laws, and resources, while remaining part of the national framework. This approach seeks to balance unity with local identity and autonomy, allowing regions to preserve cultural uniqueness and manage their own needs, rather than being fully governed by centralized authorities. Autonomismo can influence policies on education, language, and economic development, promoting decentralization without complete independence.
