Isaías Carrasco
Isaías Carrasco (1964 – March 7, 2008) was a Basque politician, affiliated with the PSE.

Socialist Party Of The Basque Country – Euskadiko Ezkerra
Socialism is a left-wing economic philosophy and movement encompassing a range of economic systems characterized by the dominance of social ownership of the means of production as opposed to private ownership.
