Spanish state terrorism
Basque society has been exposed to the terrorist violence of the Spanish state during and after the dictatorship and to that of ETA until its definitive cessation of violence on 21 October 2011. The search for the truth demands revealing the existence of state terrorism, regardless of how some historians attempt to diminish its gravity. In this article, the focus will be on cultural productions that make the writing of the history of terrorism in…

Our times paradoxically ‘unite’ in that we are unwittingly governed by a financial logic that privileges personal gain over collective well-being. With this in mind, the essay will discuss strategies for examining oppression and imagining progress that is multidimensional and intersectional and thinks about th…

Written in red. The communist memoir in Spain
Memory, Politics, and Post-national Citizenship in Jorge Semprún's L'Écriture ou la vie
In L'Écriture ou la vie (1994) Jorge Semprún reflects on the difficulties of writing about his internment in the Buchenwald concentration camp during the Second World War.

The author struggles for a standpoint in this difficult transaction, between permitting the urgency to write devour his life or living a present…
