Human Rights and Terrorism 10 European Parliament recommendations on the role of the European Union in combating terrorism (2001/2016(INI)) 12 – Council Common Position 2003/482/CFSP of 27 June 2003 updating Common Position 2001/931/CFSP on the application of specific measures to combat terrorism and repealing Common Position 2003/402/CFSP 13 Agreement for freedom and against Terrorism 15 Declarations from ETA/Batasuna speaker 16 Related documents 1 17 List of victims assassinated by ETA 64 Those who had to flee from terror of ETA/Batasuna and extremist nationalism Why a “Resolution of support to all the victims of terrorism and, at this particular moment, to the victims of ETA/Batasuna” on the part of the European Parliament. After the approval on the part of the European Parliament of the B6-0527/2006 Resolution supporting the wrongly called “process of peace” in Spain the past 25th October 2006 in which the initiative of peace in the Basque Country undertaken by the Spanish democratic institutions leans. It is more necessary than ever before that the institutions which represent us as citizen show their unconditional support, without fissures, to the Victims of Terrorism, to all of them and, in special to those caused by ETA/Batasuna along the last 40 years. That’s why the citizen platforms White Roses for the Dignity and HazteOir.org request from the Popular Party in the European Parliament a new “Resolution of support to all the victims of terrorism and, at this particular moment, to the victims of ETA/Batasuna”. The end of this document isn’t any other than showing the need to fulfil rigorously on the part of the Government of Spain, with the implication of the whole of the European Parliament, the international legislation about the fight against terrorism. Because of the most transcendental moment that Spain is living, with the surrendering of the state of rights to the intentions of ETA/Batasuna organization, it is necessary that the support to the victims of this terrorist group should be also expressed without fissures. The article 29th of the Treaty of the European Union mentions specifically the 2 terrorism as one of the most serious forms of delinquency which must be prevented and fought both at national and European Union level. “A terrorist act means any act committed by individuals or groups resorting to violence or threatening to use violence against a country, its institutions, its population in general or specific individuals which, for reasons of separatist aspirations, extremist ideological beliefs, religious fanaticism or desire for profit, is intended to create a climate of terror among official authorities, specific individuals or groups in society or the general public” (European Parliament recommendation on the role of the European Union in combating terrorism (2001/2016(INI)) “Resolution of support to all the victims of terrorism and, at this particular moment, to the victims of ETA/Batasuna”. The European Parliament, Guided by the Charter of the United Nations, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Remembering the Resolution adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations. 56/160. Human rights and terrorism Remembering the European Parliament recommendation on the role of the European Union in combating terrorism (2001/2016(INI)). Remembering a Resolution on the peace process in Spain approved by this Parliament of 25 October 2006. Having regard to Council Common Position 2003/482/CFSP on the application of specific measures to combat terrorism. Aware that, at the dawn of the twenty-first century, the world is witness to historic and far-reaching transformations, in the course of which forces of aggressive 3 nationalism and religious and ethnic extremism continue to produce fresh challenges, especially in Spain. Alarmed that acts of terrorism in all its forms and manifestations aimed at the destruction of human rights have continued despite national and international efforts, specially in Spain during last 40 years caused by ETA/Batasuna, Bearing in mind that the right to life is the basic human right, without which a human being can exercise no other right, Bearing in mind also that terrorism creates an environment that destroys the right of people to live in freedom from fear, so and as it happens with the ETA/Batasuna terrorism, Seriously concerned about the gross violations of human rights perpetrated by terrorist groups, specially by ETA/Batasuna, Profoundly deploring the increasing number of innocent persons, including women, children and the elderly, killed, massacred and maimed by terrorists in indiscriminate and random acts of violence and terror, which cannot be justified under any circumstances, Expressing its deepest sympathy and condolences to all the victims of terrorism and their families, especially to that they have been struck by the terrorism of ETA/Batasuna. A. Rejecting and condemning all acts of terrorism, specially the perpetrated ones by ETA/Batasuna, which often subject the victims and their relatives and friends to unspeakable suffering, by causing them physical injury, disablement, psychological trauma and death and by ruining their lives, B. Expressing its sincere condolences to the families of victims of acts of 4 terrorism perpetrated by ETA/Batasuna and its deepest sympathy to those affected by terrorist attacks, and their families, C. Stressing that the victims of acts of terrorism and their families must be provided with effective material assistance and psychological support, D. Whereas, for the purposes of this recommendation, a terrorist act means any act committed by individuals or groups resorting to violence or threatening to use violence against a country, its institutions, its population in general or specific individuals which, for reasons of separatist aspirations, extremist ideological beliefs, religious fanaticism or desire for profit, is intended to create a climate of terror among official authorities, specific individuals or groups in society or the general public. ETA/Batasuna corresponds with this definition, reason why it was including within the list of terrorist organizations of the European Union. E. Calling on the Member States to adopt effective measures to prevent a support framework for terrorists being created and maintained, by prohibiting any form of participation in terrorist acts and preventing logistic, material and financial assistance to terrorist acts, F. Reiterating its unqualified rejection of terrorist organisations and terrorism in the European Union, specially to ETA/Batasuna, which represent a denial of democratic values and the most fundamental of human rights, the right to life and which, as such, must be condemned in all circumstances, G. Convinced that, in view of the democratic and constitutional structure of decision-making processes in the Member States, no ideological or other grounds can justify terrorist acts committed within the European Union and that, however political the reasons cited may be, such acts can only be considered as 5 crimes, and even as crimes against humanity, which must be prosecuted, with due respect for the European Convention on Human Rights and the European Union Charter of Fundamental Rights, H. It encourages the Government of Spain, together with the main parties (PSOE and PP), to resume bravely the Agreement for the Liberties and against Terrorism of 2000 which has shown to be an effective tool to finish with terrorism. Of this pact it encourages mainly: I. To work so that any attempt of direct or indirect political legitimization of violence disappears. J. That from terrorist violence will in no case be extracted any advantage or political yield. K. To apply the Spanish penitentiary legislation assuring the most complete and severe punishment to the condemned by terrorist acts, in which the penitentiary policy will contemplate the rehabilitation forms of those who leave the terrorist organization and show to unmistakable attitudes of repentance and will of social rehabilitation as it provided in the Spanish Constitution. L. To take the victims of terrorism as their main preoccupation, so that they receive the recognition and the attention of the Spanish society to stand on its duties towards them, in special with regard to the Memory, the Dignity and the Justice that they deserve. In short, the European Parliament asks the Spanish Government to carry out the national and international the legislation, and persecute with all legal means the State has to the members of the terrorist organization ETA/Batasuna and to those who support in any way the aims and activities of this terrorist organization. From the European Parliament we are aware that we must do our best to 6 preserve the memory of the victims of terrorism, to establish a system of daily and permanent attention. Their collaboration with the society in the battle against terrorism continues to be necessary, since nobody better than the victims can defend the values of coexistence and mutual respect that those who have inflicted them such suffering want to destroy. Instructs its President to forward this Resolution to the Council, the Commission and the Governments of the Member States. Legislation and agreements to fight terrorism The “Resolution of support to all the victims of the terrorism and, specially at this moment, to the victims of ETA/Batasuna” has two clear aims: - To support unconditionally the Victims of the Terrorism.

Autor-s / Author-s: Igor Goñi Mendizabal Filiación académica /Institution: Universidad del País Vasco-Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea Dirección electrónica de contacto / e-mail: [email protected] Trademarks in Basque Gunmaking Industry. The case of ASTRA-Unceta y Cía. Igor Goñi Mendizabal University of the Basque Country 1. Introduction The main aim of this paper is to study the evolution of the use of trademarks and brands in basque gunmaking industry in the first half of the 20th century. For that after paying attention to the historical background of this activity in the Basque Country we will first try to obtain some conclusions from the analysis of a wide sample of brands used by basque manufacturers and dealers. After that we will try to make a deeper study of the issue through the case of ASTRA-Unceta y Cía. one of the most important and significant firms of this sector in Spain. 1 2. Historical background: basque gunmaking in Modern Age Due to its iron ore deposits and other good features the Basque Country has had a very long tradition of ironworking, and among other products, of manufacturing weapons2. Basque smiths, who had made swords, spears, crossbows, arrows, helmets, armors and bucklers during Middle Ages, started to produce firearms at the beginning of the Modern Age and Spanish Crown’s huge demand fostered this business during the following centuries.

  • De Esperanza Y Unceta a ASTRA-Unceta Y Cía., S
    Igor Goñi De Esperanza y Unceta a ASTRA-Unceta y Cía., S. A., una empresa armera ante el mercado internacional (1908-1970) IGOR GOÑI Universidad• del País Vasco Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea Introducción La historia de la industria armera vasca estuvo estrechamente vinculada a los mercados internacionales desde finales del siglo XIX. La estrechez del mer- cado interior español, no sólo por razones de renta, sino también por las res- trictivas disposiciones administrativas sobre la tenencia y uso de armas, obligó a las empresas del sector a buscar mercados alternativos en el exterior, sobre todo en el caso de aquéllas dedicadas a la fabricación de armas cortas con des- tino al mercado civil. La mayor parte de ellas conseguían competir en esos mer- cados ofreciendo armas de baja calidad y precio, aunque algunas lograron obte- ner éxitos comerciales con armas de gama superior1. Por tanto, nos encontra- mos con un sector que ya a finales del siglo XIX contaba, si nos ceñimos a la importancia de sus exportaciones, con un elevado grado de internacionaliza- ción. El objetivo del presente trabajo es profundizar en el análisis de la inter- nacionalización de la industria armera a través de un estudio de caso, el de la empresa Unceta y Cía. de Gernika-Lumo (Bizkaia). Se trata, sin duda, de un ejemplo representativo de este sector ya que fue una de las pocas empresas que se mantuvo en la actividad armera desde su fundación hasta su definitiva des- aparición a finales del siglo pasado2. 1. Goñi (2007). 2. Aún hoy subsisten empresas que en sus orígenes se dedicaron a esta actividad pero que aca- baron derivando hacia otro tipo de producciones, como Olave, Solozabal y Cía., empresa fabrican- te de material de oficina; Orbea, fabricante de bicicletas, integrada actualmente en Mondragón Corporación Cooperativa; o el grupo Alfa, que abarca una amplia gama de productos, desde máqui- nas de coser hasta todo tipo de piezas para maquinaria.
