| Description | 'Identity' is a catch-all term of our times. It is an empty vessel which can be filled with almost any content. In author's present fieldwork, the author attempts to elaborate an account of the confrontation between Basque nationalism and the regionalism of Navarre, a northern Spanish province. Identity and ethnicity cannot here be taken as ethnographic givens as Navarrans argue over who they are: Basques or Spaniards? Clearly in these sorts of context ethnicity is a mutable strategy grounded in historial circumstances, not an unchanging datum coasting in some timeless ethnographic present. The accepted context for the rise of Basque nationalism in the late nineteenth century is the alienation in 'their own land' of rural migrants to the newly industrialising Basque towns. Its first major ideologue, Sabino Arana-Goiri, defined the Basques nominally, anthropologically, and linguistically. In this way radical Basque nationalists have created an explanatory world-view with great interpretive extension. Book Name: Inside European Identities |
