The new President of Catalonia, Joaquim Torra, has dedicated his life to disseminate the benefits of the most extreme catalan nationalism. Among his works as a writer and publisher, he has written books of tribute to the Badia Brothers and Daniel Cardona, members of Estat Català, a 1930 philofascist movement well known for defending racism and the use of violence. He admires the extreme ideology represented by Estat Català. In his role as press columnist, Torra has written more than 400 articles in which he tries to translate these old racist ideology to current times.
