The ‘lazy iconoclasts’. Models and patterns of Italy’s removal of Fascist signs
Blowing Against the Winds of Change
The literature on decolonization in settler contexts is characterized by an almost exclusive focus on the Anglo-French world, and by a marked emphasis on violence as the predominant feature of the settlers’ reaction to change. This article aims to challenge this assumption. Eritrea – like the other former Italian colonies – is certainly a peculiar case of early, top-down decolonization; but the actors on the field were anything but passive specta…
White slaves’
In the context of settler colonialism the immigration of white workers has generated a complex network of dynamics between race, labor, and whiteness. The intertwining of these three concepts can be better understood by analyzing them together, as interconnected tesserae of the same mosaic. Italian East Africa is the perfect case study. In a few years this settler colony was the site of a peculiar migratory wave by Italian workers: the phenomenon…
‘ Terra promessa ’

Although discontinuous, settlement was always present as a founding element of its colonial discourse and practice.

Between 1942 and 1943 four large ocean liners made three trips circumnavigating Africa and brought back to Italy about 28,000 Italians. This paper, based on reports written by the chiefs of the exp…
