This is the first comprehensive exploration of agricultural policy
in Fascist Italy. Drawing on a wealth of sources, it describes the
major agricultural campaigns of the Fascists and situates them in
the economic and social context of the times. A further central
focus is on the ideological notions fueling Fascist 'ruralism' and
the question of the exercise of power in rural areas. It transpires
that the policy of autarchy was in itself largely successful,
whereas the regime's objectives in the field of social and
settlement policy came to nothing. After initially effective
mobilization drives, the mid thirties saw an increasing loss of
identification with Fascism among the rural population.
