Resumen de Fascismo e società italiana. Una riflessione storiografica nel centenario della marcia su Roma
Massimo Baioni, Claudia Baldoli, Marco Cuzzi, Irene Piazzoni, Giovanni Scirocco
Italian fascism has not ceased to be the focus of an interest that exceeds national boundaries: together with the Risorgimento, the «Ventennio» constitutes probably the most internationally studied period of modern Italian history. The centenary of the March on Rome (1922-2022) can also be seen as an opportunity for a historiographical review of more recent studies of fascism. Four collective volumes are examined in this discussion. They are: Giovanni De Luna (ed.), Fascismo e storia d’Italia. A un secolo dalla marcia su Roma. Temi, narrazioni, fonti; Gianfranco Pasquino (ed.), Fascismo. Quel che è stato, quel che rimane; Giulia Albanese (ed.), Il fascismo italiano. Storia e interpretazioni; Salvatore Lupo and Angelo Ventrone (eds.), Il fascismo nella storia italiana. Precisely because they are the result of collective work, these volumes make it possible to highlight some basic lines of current research on fascism in terms of authors, themes, sources, interpretations, and the confrontation with public discourse.
