Works In Progress

  •   · Annabel Martín is currently studying the cultural context surrounding the end of ETA terrorism in Spain and the role the arts play in processes of reconciliation. Her focus is on the ways the ethos driving restorative justice practices between victims and victimizers of both Basque ETA and Spanish GAL political violence offer alterative models of social interaction grounded in shared notions of vulnerability and human rights. Deep gratitude for the generosity of human rights activists and victims Maixabel Lasa, Pili Zabala, and Iñaki García Arrizabalaga.
