Abstract

This article studies Spanish patriotism and the Spanish nation-idea in the Basque Fuerism discourse, hegemonic in the Provincias Vascongadas during the 19th century. Its objective is to analyze the meaning of this discourse and to discuss whether this political regionalism —the first to appear in Spain— was an informal mechanism of Spanish nationalization, and, simultaneously, played a role as a cultural substratum, by which Basque nationalism would be nourished.
