"This book uses a cross-disciplinary approach to examine the creation, development, ideology, and practice of the Marxist terrorist group 17N"--
This book is about the Revolutionary Organization 17 November (17N). More specifically, it looks at the ethics of the organization as they appeared at a theoretical level (proclamations and manifestos published by 17N members) and as they were applied through the operational choices of the organization. Focus will be placed on the way 17N members thought of the organization and themselves; their texts will be presented and examined in relation to the morality they claimed they had. The principles, argumentation, and explanation that 17N provided for its actions and choices will be viewed through its eyes, and analysis will follow. -- Provided by publisher
