Resumen:
The crisis in the public audiovisual sector has coincided in time with the legitimate crisis suffered by European governments and institutions. Efforts to overcome the political crisis have given rise to a number of documents on governance focusing on two issues: the need to re-define decision making and democratic action processes under principles of aperture, transparency, cooperation, inclusiveness and coherency; and, on the other hand, the urgency of fostering civic participation. The approval of the Charter for Multilevel Governance in Europe by the Committee of the Regions in April 2014 is an opportunity to analyse these objectives and study their connection to the future of public regional audiovisual entities. This study analyses said connection and, specifically, its reflection in current regional audiovisual laws in effect in: Catalonia, the Basque Country and Galicia.
