![]() Thursday 26th November @ 8pm, LASC, 5 Merrion Row, Dublin 2 Basques were prominent in the colonisation of Latin America, but when the great anti-colonial struggles for freedom from Spain swept the colonies, those of Basque descent were there supporting the liberation struggles too. Since then, numerous relations have existed between the two regions, and national liberation conflicts have raged in both, presenting remarkable parallels, but also important differences. This talk will take a historical comparative approach between the social and political situation in both regions. |
