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.
