The Catholic Ladies of Rotzo: A Cautionary Tale
book chapter, pages 216-239, in 'Meneghello : fiction, scholarship, passione civile' editied by Daniela La Penna
Revisiting Naples: Clientelism and organized crime
Naples and the Campania region have always been labelled one of the heartlands of corruption, clientelism and organized crime. All of which polluted the local economy, civil society and politics. The 'tangentopoli' crisis of 1993–94 marked an important turning point: the direct election of Antonio Bassolino as mayor of Naples was intended to introduce a new form of leadership and a rebirth for the city/region, but 12 years on, how much has really…
The politics of town planning in post-war Naples
The article examines town planning in the city of Naples since the war and, in particular, the ambiguous relations between politicians and policy. The focus of the analysis highlights the failure to give effect to the various master plans (PRG) discussed and sometimes adopted by the city authorities. This explains to a large extent the widespread building speculation that occurred in these years. Keywords: Town PlanningPolicyLocal PoliticsBuild…

From Two into One: The Faces of the Italian Christian Democratic Party
This article discusses the nature of Italy's major post-war government party, Christian Democracy (recently collapsed, after almost half a century in power), and its local power structures. Its main thesis is that, for a series of historical and socio-economic reasons, it was constituted initially of two types of party - a notables' party in southern Italy and a mass party in northern Italy - held together by generic anti-communism and state patr…
Le double visage de la Démocratie chrétienne
The Double Face of the Christian Democrat Party. Percy Allum [24-44]. This article discusses the organization of the Christian Democrat Party and its local power system in North and South Italy. Its main thesis is that for a series of historical and socio-economic reasons, it was constituted two types of party (a party of notables in the South and a mass party in the North), held together ideologically by a generic anti-Communism. Moreover, as a …

Les groupes de pression en Italie
L'étude des groupes de pression, longtemps secteur de pointe de la science politique, a connu dans la dernière décennie un certain discrédit. Cette perspective reste cependant fort utile pour l'analyse du système politique italien. Si le rôle des partis politiques apparaît toujours prépondérant durant toute la période de l'après-guerre, les principaux groupes de pression traditionnels et, après 1968, les nouveaux groupes associatifs, n'en ont pa…

Planning the Eternal City: Roman Politics and Planning since World War II
Voting in Naples, 1946-68: A Framework and Two Analyses
Elections at the general or municipal level have been an annual feature of Italian political life since 1946, and electoral studies, whether polemical or statistical, have been legion.1 Surveys based on hypotheses formulated in the light of explicit models of political activity in that country have been much rarer.2 This research note is a report on a study of this type in the Naples-Caserta constituency
