POLITIC DIVISIONS
 The principal two parties of Spain are:
PARTIDO POPULAR (PP) AND PARTIDO
SOLCIALISTA OBRERO ESPAÑOL (PSOE)
 Partido popular:is a conservative political

party and center-right
 PSOE:  political party is a social democratic

ideology of Spain
 ECONOMIC PROBLEMS
 The Spanish economy through the worst economic
crisis of democracy.

 In Spain is also the crisis of unemployment. According

to data from the last quarter of the EPA in this country
are currently more than four million unemployed.
 
 Not only is over the growth cycle of the Spanish
economy, but Spain has gone from half the
jobs created in the European Union to be the country
that suffers most by far the destruction of jobs.
 The number of unemployed citizens in Spain has
increased to 11% of the total active population. Even
though the unemployment rate has reached the highest
level since 1999.
 The unemployment rate for women increased to 13.89%
and for men 6.49%. The only business in which the rate
dropped was the building industry. 16.4% of unemployed
people in Spain are under 25 and the majority of them are
women (56.9%). The number of unemployed varies
depending on the region with Southern Spain having a
higher rate than the north
 ENVIROMENTAL PROBLEMS

 Our national emissions exceed the targets agreed for 2012 and we

are far from the ceiling that we should reach this year.
 

 Spain may be particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate

change due to its geographical location. This phenomenon could
exacerbate environmental problems and conditions such as water
shortages, air pollution, forest fires, desertification and the
progressive loss of our biodiversity ..
 
 The generation of waste, mainly urban in
character, has increased substantially in
recent years environmental issues involved. 
 A third of the size of Spain are at risk
of desertification high or very high. Its
main cause of forest fires, afforestation and
inadequate water shortage.
 IMIGRATION

 The immigration policy should be part of a common European

immigration policy and the principles that inspired it.
 
 We want an orderly immigration policy and stable, the basic
principle should be the law. Accessing immigration to our country
through legal channels and their permits in order.
 
 The integration of immigrants on the basis of equal rights and
duties is a central goal in our immigration policy. Therefore,
governments must develop integration policies to ensure a model
of coexistence based on equality of rights and duties, equal
opportunities and promotion of the values ​​that make Spain a free
and democratic society. 
 A priority and a commitment to additional legal
immigration policy is to encourage responsible and
caring, which combine to enable international
cooperation and fight against exploitation and
mafias.
 The appropriate management of migratory flows in
our country, and to respect the current
legislation should be adapted to host our real
capacity. 
 REGIONAL ADMINISTRATIOM

 The citizens demand that the Administration

is at your service. So need an organized state,
with well-defined powers between the various
public administrations, without duplication,
without bureaucracy and high doses of
coordination. Our regional structure can not be a
burden for the Spanish trace when the economic
crisis.
