La Franja no és una cosa del passat, ni la cabòria de cap partit polític.
The Franja is not a thing of the past, nor is it the romantic dream of any political party.
Doesn't quite capture the real meaning though:
f Preocupació, cavil·lació, especialment sense fonament. (GREC)
idees:
pipedream
fairytale
philosophise
En castellà l'Anabel m'ha trobat "elucubrar": Imaginar sin mucho fundamento. Potser us ajudará a trobar.
