Basque nationalism has been extensively examined from the
perspectives of Basque culture and internal conditions in the
Basque Country, but Andre Lecours is among the first to demonstrate
how Basque nationalism was shaped by the many forms and historical
phases of the Spanish state. His discussion employs one of the most
debated approaches in the social sciences - historical
institutionalism - and it includes an up-to-date examination of the
circumstances for, and consequences of, recent events such as ETA's
announcement in 2006 of a permanent cease-fire.Lecours also
analyzes other aspects of Basque nationalism, including the
international relations of the Basque Autonomous Government, as
well as the responses of the contemporary Spanish state and how it
deploys its own brand of nationalism. Finally, the book offers a
comparative discussion of Basque, Catalan, Scottish, Flemish, and
Quebecois nationalist movements, suggesting that nationalism in the
Basque Country, despite the historical presence of violence, is in
many ways similar to nationalism in other industrialized
democracies."" Basque Nationalism and the Spanish State"" is an
original and provocative discussion that is essential reading for
anyone interested in the Basques or in the development of modern
nationalist movements.
