Book ETA and Basque Nationalism  RLE  Terrorism   Insurgency

Download or read book ETA and Basque Nationalism RLE Terrorism Insurgency written by John L. Sullivan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-04-17 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the formation of ETA (Euskadi ta Askatasuna) and the tensions created by its combination and aims: socialism and Basque nationalism. The Basque Nationalist movement emerged in the late nineteenth century as a response to the rapid transformation of Basque society by industrialisation. The influx of Spanish-speaking workers to Basque territories seemed to threaten the stability of basque society. Gradually the immigrants became absorbed into the radical struggle, with the creation of illegal trade unions and the need to resist the Franco regimne by whatever means. Over the next half century Basque consicousness developed until the radical nationalist organisation ETA was formed in 1959.

Book Dirty War  Clean Hands

    Book Details:
  • Author : Paddy Woodworth
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2002-01-01
  • ISBN : 9780300097504
  • Pages : 522 pages

Download or read book Dirty War Clean Hands written by Paddy Woodworth and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spain's transition from the Franco dictatorship to a democratic state has been widely regarded as exemplary. However, as modern court proceedings have exposed, the first post-transition government, in attempting to destroy the Basque separatist group ETA, adopted the very policies of indiscriminate terror which characterised both the Franco regime and ETA's own strategy. In this narrative Woodworth disentangles a complex conspiracy through documentary evidence and first-hand interviews. He analyzes what happens when a democracy abandons the rule of law, showing how state terror has strengthened revolutionary terrorism and raising questions about post-Franco Spain.

Book Basques  Today

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ramón Zallo
  • Publisher : Alberdania
  • Release : 2006
  • ISBN : 9788496643598
  • Pages : 332 pages

Download or read book Basques Today written by Ramón Zallo and published by Alberdania. This book was released on 2006 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ramón Zallo offers us with this informative book an overall synthesis of Basque culture, society and history. Thanks to its contents it may be destined to become a road map for understanding some keys about the country of the Basques. The author starts from a broad concept of Basque culture which, while it is not very well known, is proportionally very rich for such a small country. He conceives it as a whole culture and as having a history of its own, although it is very closely related to its surroundings. And its trajectory indicates the need to prioritize its development and singularity in this global world full of uncertainty. In Part One he traces (and vindicates) the cultural and spatial idea of Euskal Herria, and briefly describes its history, society and characteristics, its economic evolution and the political systems of Euskadi, Navarra and Iparralde. He presents a society with deeply-rooted values and a very dense civil society that now needs to review, without amnesia, the tragedies and disappointments of recent years. In Part Two he offers a new vision of each one of the various branches of culture. Giving Euskara the attention that it deserves as the most specific defining trait, the book offers an added dimension through an updated look at the styles, works and names within architecture, the visual, theatre and musical arts, Basque literature in Euskara and Spanish and the different types of heritage.It ends with a gallery of historical and contemporary figures that demonstrate the country’s diversity. Its method is descriptive, orderly and not overly interpretative. Interpretation is left to the reader.
