ETA - from fighters against state terrorism to terrorists
This book explains in some detail the transition of ETA from a primarily political oriented insurgence group that broke from the Basque Nationalist Party in the late 50's, and as a response to the unrelenting state repression and state terrorism exercized by Franco and his henchmen, to the organazation that is the ETA of recent times - 1980.

rationalizes eta even when clearly a terrorist outfit
it's a partisan and biased account of a brutal and terrorist organization with both fascist and nazi features.it simplifies a rather complex situation and praises violence in its worst forms.

ETA - from fighters against state terrorism to terrorists,

This review is from: The Basque Insurgents: Eta, 1952-1980 (Hardcover)
This book explains in some detail the transition of ETA from a primarily political oriented insurgence group that broke from the Basque Nationalist Party in the late 50's, and as a response to the unrelenting state repression and state terrorism exercized by Franco and his henchmen, to the organazation that is the ETA of recent times - 1980.In some ways the evolution of ETA mirrors that of the IRA, whose folk heros show scant resemblance to the bearers of unwanted gifts of just yesterday. Still nothing is really black and white, and this book just emphasizes that aspect. regards, martyn_jones@iniciativas.com

It's posible to study ETA using statistics!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Basque Insurgents: Eta, 1952-1980 (Hardcover)
An extraordinary vision of ETA evolution through the 60s and 70s. The fights, the politics and the repressions are observed by a new angle: the statistic data that the organization leave behind. Following other titles of Robert P. Clark, this book is essential for anyone that is interested in ETA and in the Basque country. Be aware: after you read this book, your perception of this terrorist organization will probably change. By Gonçalo Pereira
