The Italian Empire and the Great War
Italy's Sea
Strongmen
Many scholars of authoritarianism noticed striking similarities between dictatorships of the past and President Donald Trump’s rhetoric, policies, and style of rule. Ben-Ghiat’s study of authoritarians from Benito Mussolini to Trump approaches the problem through the lens of a strongman “playbook,” providing a detailed and often intimate history of how these men win, exercise, and lose power. Although heavily focused on European figures—including…
Religion as Resistance
Eileen Ryan's book examines the relationship between Italian colonial authorities and the Sanusiyya, a Sufi religious order in Cyrenaica, the eastern province of modern Libya, from 1911 until the early 1930s. Ryan recounts the Italian government's search for a workable colonial policy, as it moved from strategies of indirect rule (accommodation and compromise with local elites) under a liberal government to brutal repression under Fascist rule. T…
Mussolini and Hitler
Mussolini arrived in a ‘showy uniform and riding boots’ while Hitler ‘wore a belted beige trench coat, striped trousers, a white shirt and tie’, carrying a ‘rumpled fedora’ and looking like ‘an office worker’ (p. 46). Hitler offered the Nazi salute, but Mussolini withheld the similar Roman salute, instead shaking hands as ‘a distancing act . . . suggesting that the Duce did not consider Hitler a fascist leader on equal footing’ (p. 46). In this f…
E manuele S ica . Mussolini’s Army in the French Riviera
The Italian occupation of Yugoslavia during the Second World War featured mass executions, burned villages, and lethal concentration camps. In her fine new book Mussolini’s Army in the French Riviera, Emanuele Sica examines why the Italian occupation of France was so different. Despite facing partisan sabotage and attacks, the Italian military rarely engaged in collective punishment or executions in southeastern France. The Italians arrested and …
Mussolini's Policemen
Amedeo Osti Guerrazzi. The Italian Army in Slovenia
The history of Fascist political and military violence has come a long way in recent decades. In specialist journals and foreign-language monographs, scholars of Benito Mussolini's regime have unearthed unknown, ignored, and forgotten episodes of repression, atrocity, and other criminal behaviors. Little of this scholarship, however, has been available to an English-language audience. This translation of Amedeo Osti Guerrazzi's short, excellent s…
In the Society of Fascists
Donald Bloxham and Robert Gerwarth, editors. Political Violence in Twentieth-Century Europe
Donald Bloxham and Robert Gerwarth's fine edited volume is the product of collaboration among seven leading scholars who held five workshops in as many years to discuss the book's central themes. The book contains five (mostly coauthored) chapters that adhere tightly to the coherent frameworks established in the editors' insightful, lucid introduction. Noting the lack of a single study that explains “the emergence and manifestations of, and inter…
Ordinary Violence in Mussolini's Italy
Between 1926 and 1943, the Fascist regime arrested thousands of Italians and deported them to island internment colonies and small villages in southern Italy. Ordinary Violence in Mussolini's Italy analyses this system of political confinement and, more broadly, its effects on Italian society, revealing the centrality of political violence to Fascist rule. In doing so, the book shatters the widely accepted view that the Mussolini regime ruled wit…
