In Madrid
On 30 January, in San Mamés, it was once again shown that in Euskal Herria we are a step further in favour of women’s equality than in other places. On one night of a real dog, 48,000 people had accumulated on the stands of the Cathedral to witness the mourning between two football teams made up of girls. Never seen, across Europe and almost in the world. Basque football fans placed the female sport and the name of this town at the top. The admiration of the majority of the Madrid press. Although, well, it wasn't that hard, the echo of the San Mamés feat even reached the pages of the New York Times or the Washington Post.No there was
nothing to worry about.
Iban Zaldua surprised me more. He had just returned from Madrid, where he presented his last book, As if everything had happened, a collection that he has taken out in Spanish with his narratives. Surprised by the influx to the act of presentation and the curiosity aroused by his work. To such an extent, I had to reassure myself: “You know where this miserable lies. Well, his friends in that fucking city have worked for him!”
The award of the Cook Prize of the Year to Eneko Atxa at the Madrid Fusion fair, at last, had to ignite the alarm, but it did not turn it on me. Even in the lead-years, the most famous cooks received red carpets from the state capital, which made them enjoy the comfort and gratitude when they were invited to television, the lounge and the silk festival. Suddenly, the head was the award received by the owner of the house Azurmendi.
We will have to resign ourselves. Confronting reality. No matter how terrible it was. In Madrid we are in fashion. They want us. And I don't know if we're prepared for so much love.
The truth is that, at the time they were rewarding the Zornotzarra saleswoman, Maialen Lujanbio – our Maialen – sang elsewhere in the capital of the Kingdom. Champion of Euskal Herria – twice champion – in the Cineteca de Madrid, in Bertso, in the program El seventh vice de Radio 3. A beautiful crowd who apparently had the opportunity to see before the Hernaniarra the documentary Bertsolari of Asier Altuna. The same audience put Lujanbio on the subjects and explained the essence of the verses that had been thrown at him. According to the Spanish broadcaster, the total success of the interview has been satisfactory.
My hair was raised. The first thing could be a fluke. The second is the eccentricity of luck. The third is the astral conjunction. The room...?
We will have to resign ourselves. Confronting reality. No matter how terrible it was. In Madrid we are in fashion. They want us. And I don't know if we're prepared for so much love.

Epistemology, or theory of knowledge, is one of the main areas of philosophy, and throughout history there have been important debates about the limits and bases of our knowledge. Within this we find two powerful corridors that propose different ways of accessing knowledge: The... [+]
We learned this week that the Court of Getxo has closed the case of 4-year-old children from the Europa School. This leads us to ask: are the judicial, police, etc. authorities prepared to respond to the children’s requests? Are our children really protected when they are... [+]
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... [+]
Zer jakin behar dut? Norekin erlazionatu behar dut? Non bizi behar dut? Ardura horiekin gabiltza gizakiok gure gizarteen baitan bizitza on baten ideia bizitzeko bidean. Ondo erantzuten ez badakigu, bazterretan geratuko garen beldurrez.

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... [+]
