Description - The Fascist Experience in Italy by John Pollard

This volume examines the development of Italian fascism, and surveys the themes and issues of the movement. It covers from the emergence of the united Italian state and the political, social and economic status of Italy in the 19th century, to the post-war aftermath of fascism. Topics include: analysis of printed and broadcast propaganda as well as Mussolini's journalism; documentary material, previously unavailable in English; a range of other source material, including images; coverage of major topics such as the transformation of Italian agrarian and urban society and the actions of the Papacy. The author reassesses the status of the fascist movement as a coalition rather than a monolith and details the images of energy and violence which were crucial to the success of fascism, both within Italy and internationally.
