Anthropologists, Indigenous Scholars and the Research Endeavour
This collection offers the fruits of a stimulating workshop that sought to bridge the fraught relationship which sometimes continues between anthropologists and indigenous/native/aboriginal scholars, despite areas of overlapping interest. Participants from around the world share their views and opinions on subjects ranging from ideas for reconciliation, the question of what might constitute a universal "science," indigenous heritage, postcolonial museology, the boundaries of the term "indigeneity," different senses as ways of knowing, and the very issue of writing as a method of dissemination that divides and excludes readers from different backgrounds. This book represents a landmark step in the process of replacing bridges with more equal patterns of intercultural cooperation and communication.

La maestra
La maestra es la historia de María de Maeztu y su sueño de abrir la mente, el estudio y la universidad a las mujeres de su época. Una novela imprescindible. Estamos en 1915 y la apertura de la Residencia de Señoritas en Madrid trae vientos de esperanza a las jóvenes que anhelan ir a la universidad, que se cortan el pelo, se suben la falda y adoptan la bandera de la igualdad. Por las páginas de esta novela, que recoge fielmente lo que aconteció, transitan entre otros relevantes personajes Victoria Kent, Clara Campoamor, Zenobia Camprubí, Josefina Carabias, Maruja Mallo o Maria Zambrano, mujeres de carne y hueso que tuvieron claro su relevante papel para conseguir que la sociedad avanzara. La Residencia de Señoritas fue la semilla que la guerra no consiguió secar del todo y que aún hoy sigue dando frutos. Un lugar en el comenzó a escribirse el futuro.
The Basques, the Catalans and Spain
This work provides an introduction to Basque and Catalan nationalism. The two movements have much in common, but have differed in the strategies adopted to further their cause. Basque nationalism, in the shape of the military wing of ETA, took the path of violence, spawning an efficient terrorist campaign, while Catalan nationalism is more accommodating and peaceful.
Ethnicity and Violence
This book provides a genealogy of radical Basque nationalism and the means by which this complex, often violent, political movement has reinforced Basque identity. Radical nationalists are mobilized by a shared frame of reference where ethnicity and violence are intertwined in a nostalgic recreation of a golden age and a quasi-religious imperative to restore that distant past. Muro critically examines the origins of the ethno-nationalist conflict and provides a comprehensive examination of Euskadi Ta Askatusana’s (ETA) violent campaign. The book analyzes the interplay of ethnicity and violence and stresses the role of inherited myths, memories, and cultural symbols to explain the ability of radical Basque nationalism to endure.
Moving Crucifixes in Modern Spain
Why are religious visions believed only in certain times and places? In this book William Christian investi gates the settings and responses to a series of group visions reported by Spaniards in rural Galicia, Valencia, Cantabria, and Navarre in the early part of this century the most notable one involving the crucifix at Limpias, where Jesus was first seen agonizing on the cross during a mission service in March of 1919.
