Zusammenfassung

Nicola Sturgeon, First Minister de Escocia, ha anunciado la celebración de un segundo referéndum de independencia para Escocia el 19 de octubre de 2023. Dada la negativa del Gobierno del Reino Unido a negociar una nueva consulta de independencia, la convocatoria de este referéndum, conocido popularmente como IndyRef2, está envuelta en una gran incertidumbre. Este artículo tiene por objetivo evaluar las posibilidades de que este segundo referéndum de independencia de Escocia pueda llevarse a cabo. Para ello, se comenzará realizando un recorrido histórico por los distintos referéndums que se han celebrado en este territorio, analizando sus consecuencias y cómo sus resultados han influido en las estrategias de determinados partidos políticos (especialmente en el Partido Nacionalista Escocés). Posteriormente, se expondrán los argumentos a favor y en contra de la realización de un segundo referéndum de independencia para Escocia, para finalizar el texto valorando las posibilidades reales de que el IndyRef2 se celebre en la fecha prevista por las autoridades escocesas. El escrito concluye anticipando que, durante los próximos años, la cuestión territorial escocesa continuará siendo un elemento clave en la política interior del Reino Unido.
