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.

    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).

  • The Dynamics Between Unified Basque & Dialects in the Northern
    International Journal of Language and Linguistics Vol. 6, No. 1, March 2019 doi:10.30845/ijll.v6n1p13 The Dynamics between Unified Basque & Dialects in the Northern Basque Country: A Survey Based on Perceptual Dialectology Jean-Baptiste Coyos Basque Text & Language Study Center IKER - UMR 5478 (Bayonne - France) & Royal Academy of the Basque Language Château Neuf - Place Paul Bert 64100 Bayonne France Abstract Today Unified Basque, a standardised written version of Basque created by the Academy of the Basque Language from the 1960s onwards and which is now widely codified, coexists alongside the Northern Basque Country’s dialects (NBC, France). Understanding the relationship between these different forms of the Basque language is necessary in order to implement an appropriate language policy. In this paper we present the answers to the open-ended questions of a survey and accompanying comments. Based on Perceptual Dialectology, the questionnaire was completed by 40 people working in Basque in the NBC: writers, teachers, journalists, translators and language technicians. The main objective was to gather their opinions regarding Unified Basque and the dialects. The respondents were chosen according to the following criterion: they are all language prescribers, working in the language and providing a model of the Basque language for society.The main results of the survey are as follows: 95% of respondents think that Unified Basque is necessary in the NBC, 92.5% believe that the specificities of the NBC’s linguistic varieties should be preserved, 80% that Unified Basque does not harm the NBC’s dialects and more than half that there is now a form of Unified Basque specific to the NBC.

  • Taxes, National Identity, and Nation Building: Evidence from France∗
    Taxes, National Identity, and Nation Building: Evidence from France∗ Noel D. Johnsony George Mason University This Version: October 2, 2015 Abstract We show that increases in state capacity can lower the collective action costs associated with political and economic exchange by encouraging the formation of a common identity. We test this by exploiting the fact that the French Monarchy was more successful in substituting its fiscal and legal institutions for those of the medieval seigneurial regime within an area of the country known as the Cinq Grosses Fermes (CGF). Disaggregated data from the 1789 Cahiers de Doléances confirm that regions just inside the CGF were more likely than regions just out- side the CGF to identify themselves with market enhancing national institutions. Key words: Culture; Institutions; State Capacity; Economic Development JEL classification: D03; N43; O43 ∗I am grateful to Saumitra Jha for bringing the data on the Cahiers de Doléances to my attention. John Markoff also very graciously offered assistance in locating data. Werner Troesken provided vital support at the beginning of the project. David Le Bris read and commented on an early draft as well as kindly providing data used in Sections 3 and 6. Nico Voigtländer and Mara Squicciarini provided the data on education drawn from Furet and Ozouf (1977). I also benefited greatly from conversations with Sascha Becker, Hans-Joachim Voth, Jean-Laurent Rosenthal, Nico Voigtländer, Saumitra Jha, Mauricio Drelichman, Tyler Cowen, Jenny Guardado, Philip Hoffman, Mark Koyama,
