A relevant work close to reality that shows, and demonstrates, how fracture and division are also exported. This book, written as a diary and in real time, is the story from 2013 to 2021 of all the social and political events that occurred in Catalonia, written together, as well as the most relevant ones, both in Catalonia and in the rest of Spain, which were facilitated or consented to by the governments of the State and the Autonomous Community, which have led, both, to produce a climate of division, first in Catalonia among its citizens, but also, consequently, in all Spain. The social and political x-ray of the Catalan Community that is detailed has been marked by the preponderance of emotions in a good part of society, which has put in a bind, and in many cases overshadowed, the rational analysis of the facts and the proposals from each other, which has caused an obvious social division and that to avoid worse conflicts, some even choose to censor themselves and others to ignore them. All of this has generated a society with a social capital well below the capacities that the Community has always exhibited and which in the near past has borne fruit of social and economic leadership in Spain. The content and results of this book are endorsed not only by the behaviors and actions of some groups of acquaintances, friends and relatives of the author who are quoted and who could represent, to a large extent, the affected society, but above all , for the extensive documentation with information from dozens of journalists and authors who, in their writings and comments, reveal what has been happening, also at the time the events occurred, or that they express in their own comments. Some actions carried out prior to the beginning of the "diary" are also collected and that condition many of the behaviors that are revealed in the story. It is a relevant, essential, and real document for anyone who wants to delve into the truth, that human value that is the most important for ethical conduct; and that, in our opinion, should mark the driving axis of the behavior of rulers and ruled. The opinions and considerations of both the author and the actors who are given a voice can be left out of the story. The facts are true and their consequences too.
