It is impoáible to put into one book all of what Joxemi Zumalabe has meant for Basque culture. So, don't look for a biography in these pages. However, this book does serve as an homage to his untiring work and his personal trajectory.This work analyzes the proceá of development of the Basque language preá and explains the agreáive posture of the Basque government against Euskaldunon Egunkaria from its start to what is today a healthy project for the Basque national preá in Euskara.
