Without much rigor, I told the journalists that “we were in the lurch,” when we were talking about the revitalization of the Basque country. And the next day, Anjel Lertxundi asked me -- quite rigorously -- exactly how we were: apathetic humble, decadent or calm. Within a few days, on the same subject, Patxi Baztarrika said that he did not see “stagnation” but “uncertainty”.
Words aloud, the idea has been extended that the rhythms of the regeneration process are being reduced, and that with the mere repetition of the actions that have been taken so far we will not repeat the growth that has taken place. I mean, we're going to need big doses of innovation for the future. What? Here are my priorities.
Research and science. Citizens must be asked about the causes of their linguistic behaviour and apply different sciences to their responses. The binomial research/science will provide the basis for drawing long-term strategies and defining planning based on them. In addition to institutional capacity and social initiative, a third aspect would be added: knowledge, in which forces, functions and complementarities would be balanced.
Local activation. Euskaltzalism has withered as professionalism has increased. I believe it is essential to recover a modern dynamic by neighbourhoods, municipalities and districts that activates and associates Euskaltzales, both the “professionals” (elected, technical or sectoral positions) and the militants (associations of Euskera and social agents).
Update of discourses. It's very important how we explain things and how we argue policies. More than a speech, we need several; consistent with each other, of course, but adapted to different recipients. For example, the mere change of name I took in summer has opened many doors for me, far beyond what I expected.
The political shield. In the new office I am seeing that it is the right time to define a common ground between speakers based on freedom, equality and justice; and that it is possible to open a new era of agreements on that common ground that shields political conflicts from the process of revitalizing the Basque country.
Nothing I said is completely new, let alone the one I invented. But I am convinced that innovation is, first and foremost, an attitude. And that a certain humiliation, stagnation or uncertainty as a gift can bring us all at our disposal to innovate.

Gure lurraldeetan eta bizitzetan sortzen diren behar, desio eta ekimenen inguruan gero eta gehiago entzuten dugu harreman eta proiektu publiko-komunitarioak landu beharraz, eta pozgarria da benetan, merkaturik gabeko gizarte antolaketarako ezinbesteko eredua baita. Baina... [+]
We have renewed the dialogue in the secretariat of the faculty, for the most auspicious: they are far away, for their enrollment, the times when only the students came. The trend has changed for a long time, and parents – most notably mothers – are taking an increasingly... [+]
The argument of a syllogism has three propositions, the last of which is necessarily deduced from the other two. It is with this deductive logic that I can analyze, for me, the long and traumatic socioecological conflict in Carpinteria that is taking place in Navarre.

I have recently worked in class on Etxahun Barkox’s beautiful and touching cobla. The bad guy! The afflictions of the house began because of the creation of the “praube with beauty”, but in seventeen years she had entered the sea of misfortune, having to abandon the girl... [+]
Azken egunak garrantzi handikoak izan dira Bartzelonan, etxebizitzaren aldeko mugimenduarentzat eta espekulatzaileen aurkako borrokarentzat. Urtarrilaren 28an, polizia-armada batek Raval auzoko Massana Zaharrari [zentro sozial okupatua] eraso egin zion goizaldean, aurrez abisatu... [+]
I don't want my daughter disguising herself as a Gypsy in the caldereros. I don’t want Gypsy children at my daughter’s school to dress up as Gypsies in caldereros. Because being a gypsy is not a disguise. Because being a gypsy is not a party that takes place once a year, with... [+]
The road goes by steps, and I learned a little while ago that it seems to have already begun. But people also want to learn to fill that sentence with content. Alone we could achieve little, maybe even resignation as soon as we started. Gathering huge crowds can also complicate... [+]
Ez zuen egoki jokatu, neurriak hartu behar ziren, bestela, ez dugu ikasten. Itxuraz, ez zen ohartzen egindakoaren inpaktuaz, normal jarraitzen zuen, batzuetan, ingurukoek baino itxura zoriontsuagoz. Gainera, altuegi hitz egiten du, hori ez zaio inori gustatzen. Darabiltzan... [+]
The Department of Education doesn't understand why public employees have gone on strike. He's got to ask the LAB Syndicate. This union signed an agreement with the department in April 2023. Two years later they have also called for a strike because, unlike the previous ones, the... [+]

The liberal democracy of the Western countries has a growing appearance of a minimalist democracy. At the heart of the definition would be respect for changes in government through elections. The authoritarian variant of this was called competitive authoritarianism by political... [+]
