This work analyses the juridical and legal factors that have historically had their influence on the situation of the Basque language. It is a study of historical linguistic law that shows the close relationship between language and power. The over 250 norms that have affected the status of Basque over the last 220 years show the central position of the linguistic matter in the political construction of the States of our surroundings, and the existence of a latent and an as-yet-not-overcome linguistic conflict.
