In the Basque Country, 1895 marked the birth of the Partido Nacionalista Vasco (Basque Nationalist Party), concurrent with the development of the cultural nationalist movement known as the ‘Gaelic revival’ in pre-revolutionary Ireland. In 1939, the Spanish Civil War ended with the destruction of the Spanish Second Republic, plunging Basque nationalism into decades of intense persecution. Conversely, at this same time, Irish nationalist aspirations were realized to an unprecedented degree during the ‘republicanization’ of the Irish Free State under Irish leader Éamon de Valera. -

Historical and geographic analyses emphasize the marginality of the western Pyrenees and the role of enforced social norms exacted by intense solidarities of kin and neighbors in agropastoral production. Both are satisfying and simple narratives, yet neither offers a realistic framework for understanding complex processes or the contingency and behavioral variability of human agents in transforming a landscape. The Long Anthropocene in the western Pyrenees was a spatially and temporally heterogeneous and asynchronous process, and the evidence frequently departs from conventional narratives about human landscape degradation in this agropastoral situation. A complementary place-based strategy that draws on geoarchaeological, biophysical, and socio-ecological factors is used to examine human causality and environmental resilience and demonstrate their relationship with the sustainability of mountain landscapes of the western Pyrenees over medium to long time intervals. -

Basque Education Rights and European School Systems

Abstract It is impossible to achieve the normalization of excluded from the official public education system. This is Basque schools when they are subjected to five sets of by no means the only example of the use of a school system regulations on the use of the Basque language in different to force an alien culture on people. In the United Kingdom, parts of Euskal Herria. Instead of an education system that for exlample, Gaelic, Scots Gaelic and other Celtic differentiates between various language models, what is languages were excluded from the public school system; in needed is a school system that recognises the right of all Belgium, Flemish (Dutch) did not receive proper treatment Basque children to be educated in Basque and provides the in public education until Belgium became a federal kingdom necessary means to achieve this. As in Finland, Quebec or (in 1932, in Flanders, there were 108 public schools and 101 Belgium, so in Euskal Herria too it should be a given that all private schools, all of which only taught French) (Rodriguez, future university graduates must know the national language.

H-France Review Volume 17 (2017) Page 1 H-France Review Vol. 17 (July 2017), No. 104 Pierre Force, Wealth and Disaster: Atlantic Migrations from a Pyrenean Town in the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2016. xviii + 230 pp. Maps, figures, notes, bibliography, and index. $45.00 U.S. (hb). ISBN 978-1-4214-2128-5. Review by Sandra Ott, University of Nevada, Reno. By the beginning of the twentieth century, a popular definition of what it meant to be “an authentic Basque” had three main requirements: to have a Basque surname, to speak the Basque language, and to have an uncle in America.[1] Pierre Force’s fascinating study of trans-Atlantic French Basque migrations in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries begins with a passage from a musical comedy entitled L’oncle d’Amérique, performed in Paris in 1826. In the play, a coachman poses as a young lady’s “American uncle,” a plantation owner from the Caribbean colony of Saint-Domingue. The “uncle” boasts ownership of “two millions” worth in land, houses, and “negroes.” French audiences of that time equated America with Saint-Domingue, once France’s most lucrative colony owing to sugar and coffee production and to slave labor. Yet the figure of the “American uncle” conveyed a dual, ambivalent image of both wealth and disaster. Pierre Force seeks to understand the roots of such ambivalence by reconstructing a multi-generational network of emigrants in two families from the town of La Bastide Clairence in Lower Navarre: the Lamerenxs and the Mouscardys. Marc-Antoine Lamerenx emigrated to Saint-Domingue in 1729 and settled in the town of Saint-Martin- du-Dondon. -

Cahiers du Centre Emile Durkheim Working Papers www.centredurkheim.fr The Contrasting Local Perceptions of Europe: The 2009 Milk Strike in the French Basque Country Xabier Itçaina ISSN 2116-5513 [11] Avril/April 2012 THE CONTRASTING LOCAL PERCEPTIONS OF EUROPE. THE 2009 MILK STRIKE IN THE FRENCH BASQUE COUNTRY Xabier Itçaina * CNRS-Centre Émile Durkheim Sciences Po Bordeaux - Université de Bordeaux Marie Curie Fellow, European University Institute, Florence Abstract The dairy sector is mostly concerned with market volatility and with the transforma- tions of European regulations. In September, 2009, more than 60,000 European dairy farmers halted or reduced milk deliveries to protest falling prices and the European Commission’s plans to scrap production quotas. The strike was initiated by the Euro- pean Milk Board (EMB), a new European association of milk producers’ associations and unions, promoting an alternative discourse on the European and national regu- lations of the dairy sector. In France, among the highest rates of strikers were to be found in the Basque Country. This paper argues that the 2009 milk strike testifies the emergence of a new kind of protest, being simultaneously transnational and local. In the Basque case, the milk strike sheds light on two dimensions. First, the strike informs on the local perception of the Common agricultural policy and of European integra- tion. Second, the strike challenged the traditional equilibrium between the two local farmers’ unions (FDSEA and ELB-Confédération paysanne) by the birth of a new specialised association, the APLI (Association de producteurs de lait indépendants), related to the EMB. The protest gave birth to a public controversy where European and territorial issues appeared to be intrinsically interdependent. -

Douglass, PhD Defining “Basques” Throughout recorded history, the status of Basques has remained ambiguous—at least as defined by outsiders. The Romans reported on a people known as the Vascones, inhabiting part of the present-day European homeland of the Basques—but only a part.1 There were also other Iberian tribes sharing the ill-defined territory and it was a corridor for peoples entering Iberia from the north, like the Celts and the Romans, as well as the Muslims who came from the south. Segments of all of these outsiders settled in the Basque area and even ruled parts of it for a time, providing their own cultural overlays. During the Middle Ages, the Basque Country was a liminal zone between the Gothic and Frankish realms in southwestern Europe, at times denounced by both as a land of mountain barbarians who raided civilized lowlanders.2 The only period in which the Basque Country as a whole was briefly under a single political jurisdiction was during a part of the reign of Navarrese King Sancho the Great (1004-1035). -
