Abstract

Glavna smjernica ovoga rada bila je istražiti na koji se način nenasilna „fronta“ snašla u sveopćem kaosu baskijske borbe za neovisnost u Španjolskoj. Proučavanjem rada nenasilnih organizacija te političkih i nepolitičkih aktera prikazao se utjecaj demokracije na društvo. Iz tog utjecaja demokracije proučio se i razvoj ETA-e iz nasilne, terorističke organizacije, u nekoliko nenasilnih ogranaka koji su se, postepeno odbacivši nasilje, potpuno usredotočili na političku borbu. Istražilo se na koji način je došlo do preobrazbe sustava i načina postizanja ciljeva te djelotvornost istoga, što je ujedno i glavni sadržaj ovoga rada – pacifističke (na)mjere u borbi za neovisnost. Svaki je od aktera i institucija na putu ka pomirenju imao važnu ulogu, ali su se političke stranke i civilne organizacije u tome istaknule. Proučavanjem propalih mirovnih pregovora i sporazuma, te usporedbom sa sjevernoirskom borbom za neovisnost, prikazana je važnost dijaloga, međusobnog uvažavanja i poštivanja osnovnih prava i sloboda. Temeljem relevantne literature akademskih stručnjaka, ovim se radom detaljno prikazalo navedeno, iz čega se izveo zaključak kako je opozicija nasilju djelotvorniji i učinkovitiji oblik borbe nasuprot nasilju koje je, u baskijskom slučaju, unazadilo istu borbu.

Abstract (english)

The main guideline of this paper was to explore how did the nonviolent „front“ manage the chaos of the Basque struggle for independence in Spain. The impact of democracy on society was shown through the work of nonviolent organisations and political and nonpolitical actors. Taking that impact in consideration, the evolution of ETA was examined, from violent, terrorist organization, to several nonviolent branchs, which gradually alienated violence and completely focused on political fight. The transition of the system and achievements was explored together with its efficiency, which was the main content of this paper – pacifistic intention in the struggle for independence. Every actor and institution on the way to reconciliation had a meaningful role, but political parties and civic organizations should be highlighted. By studying failed peace treaties and negotiations, and through comparisment with Northern Ireland fight for independence, the importance of dialogue and respecting each other and each others freedoms was displayed. Through relevant literature of academic experts, the paper showed the above in detail, which lead to conclusion that nonviolence is more efficient way to fight, as opposed to violence, which, in Basque case, moved the struggle backwards.
