This book provides a genealogy of radical Basque nationalism and
the means by which this complex, often violent, political movement
has reinforced Basque identity. Radical nationalists are mobilized
by a shared frame of reference where ethnicity and violence are
intertwined in a nostalgic recreation of a golden age and a
quasi-religious imperative to restore that distant past. Muro
critically examines the origins of the ethno-nationalist conflict
and provides a comprehensive examination of Euskadi Ta Askatusana's
(ETA) violent campaign. The book analyzes the interplay of
ethnicity and violence and stresses the role of inherited myths,
memories, and cultural symbols to explain the ability of radical
Basque nationalism to endure.
