Unity and Renewal (Catalan: Unitat i Renovació) was a local political party in Canillo, Andorra.
In the Andorran parliamentary election, 1992 UiR ran a joint list with Union, Common Sense and Progress (Unió, Seny i Progres). It was the only list to run in the Canillo parochial circumscription (at that time there was no national circumscription), and the list won all four parliamentary seats (UiR 3 and USiP 1).
In the Andorran parliamentary election, 1997 UiR contested the parochial circumscription of Canillo on a joint list with the Liberal Party of Andorra (PLA). The list got 231 votes. As no other list was in the fray, the list automatically won both seats.
UiR lost the 1999 local elections in Canillo.
Famous quotes containing the words unity and, unity and/or renewal:
“Hearing, seeing and understanding each other, humanity from one end of the earth to the other now lives simultaneously, omnipresent like a god thanks to its own creative ability. And, thanks to its victory over space and time, it would now be splendidly united for all time, if it were not confused again and again by that fatal delusion which causes humankind to keep on destroying this grandiose unity and to destroy itself with the same resources which gave it power over the elements.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
“If usually the “present age” is no very long time, still, at our pleasure, or in the service of some such unity of meaning as the history of civilization, or the study of geology, may suggest, we may conceive the present as extending over many centuries, or over a hundred thousand years.”
—Josiah Royce (1855–1916)
“Every epoch which seeks renewal first projects its ideal into a human form. In order to comprehend its own essence tangibly, the spirit of the time chooses a human being as its prototype and raising this single individual, often one upon whom it has chanced to come, far beyond his measure, the spirit enthuses itself for its own enthusiasm.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
