The damage of discourse: notes on violence in the Basque Country

This paper examines Basque nationalism and ETA activities from the point of view of psychoanalysis. ETA is a separatist group formed in 1959 that has become known for its terrorist acts over the last two decades. Taking the avatars of the nationalist discourse developed in the Basque Country, the paper attempts to decipher a "mode of production" of hate and its effects.
