9781331174653: The Fascist Movement in Italian Life (Classic Reprint)

Synopsis

Explore how Fascism rose from Italy’s turmoil to shape a national course. This book offers a close look at the ideas, leaders, and actions that defined a pivotal moment in Italian history.

In the wake of war and social unrest, it traces how Fascism positioned itself as a force for national renewal. It examines the appeal to workers, professionals, soldiers, and ordinary citizens, and how Mussolini’s leadership became a central element of the movement. The text also contrasts Fascist aims with the actions of rival political forces, including Giolitti’s government and the Bolshevik threat perceived in the period.

- Understand the movement’s view of the nation, law, and order as a path to progress.
- See how Fascism presented itself as a remedy to internal strife and a challenge to existing parties.
- Learn about the roles of major figures and the political climate that enabled its ascent.
- Get a grounded sense of how this era shaped Italy’s political and social landscape.

Ideal for readers of modern European political history and students of 20th‑century reforms and upheaval.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Fascism not only boasts a sanguinary and brilliant history, which has been crowned by victory, but it is also beginning to produce an abundant literature. Almost all Italian writers have endeavoured to treat of this complex and powerful movement, which is so intensely national and I talian, because it has no parallel in the history of other peoples. A good pamphlet on Fascism from the critical point of view has been written by Mario Missiroli. A mongst others, our friend Doctor Pietro Gorgolini ,has entered the field with this volume, which is, to our mind, the best publication on Fascism that has appeared in Italy since March 1919 until to-day. Doctor Gorgolini is not only a student of Fascism, but has been a soldier of our cause from its beginning. Such qualities might have prejudiced his judgment and intuition and might have tainted his study of Fascism with a quality of subjective passion. But he has brilliantly overcome this difficulty, and in his book we find a perfect adjustment of the qualities of actor and spectator, soldier and critic. Elementary discretion prevents me from speaking of the first part of the book, which has been dedicated to a study of myself.
