The main figures of the party were Ildefons Sunyol, Jaume Carner, Joaquim Lluhí, Santiago Gubern and Eduard Calvet. The party represented the liberal line of catalanism. The main objectives of the CNR were the autonomy of Catalonia, universal suffrage and the establishment of a new Spanish republic.[1]
