Este artículo analiza el liderazgo político del presidente del Estado español, Pedro Sánchez, en la gestión de la Covid-19 durante los quince meses siguientes a la primera declaración del estado de alarma, a la vez que el contrapeso ejercido desde el Partido Nacionalista Vasco (PNV) para incorporar a las Comunidades Autónomas en la gestión de la pandemia. Con una metodología descriptiva, se analiza y sistematiza la información obtenida en distintas fuentes documentales y se estudian las técnicas jurídicas empleadas por el Gobierno Central. Se identifican cuatro modelos de gestión de la pandemia vinculados a sendas fases, moldeados, en parte, por la acción del PNV. Los patrones de liderazgo identificados muestran que, si bien la pandemia posibilitó a Sánchez demostrar su capacidad de liderazgo, esta última se diluye cuando decide en la cuarta fase judicializar las decisiones políticas sobre la pandemia, evidenciando un fracaso de la política. Este giro supone desaprovechar la oportunidad para acometer cambios profundos y avanzar hacia la cogobernanza.
This article analyzes the political leadership of the President of the Spanish State Pedro Sánchez in the management of COVID-19 during the fifteen months following the first declaration of the state of alarm and the counterweight exercised by the Basque Nationalist Party (PNV) to incorporate the Autonomous Communities in such management. The systematization and analysis of the information obtained from different documentary sources, as well as the legal techniques used by the central government, allows us to identify four leadership patterns that correspond to their respective pandemic management models, shaped, in part, by the action of the PNV. The identified leadership patterns show that, although the pandemic made it possible for Sánchez to demonstrate his leadership capacity, the latter is diluted when he decides in the fourth phase to judicialize political decisions on the pandemic, which means questioning the role of leadership politicians to deal with crises.
