Rome's once independent Italian allies became communities of a new
Roman territorial state after the Social War of 91-87 BC. Edward
Bispham examines how the transition from independence to
subordination was managed, and how, between the opposing tensions
of local particularism, competing traditions and identities,
aspirations for integration, cultural change, and indifference from
Roman central authorities, something new and dynamic appeared in
the jaded world of the late Republic. Bispham charts the successes
and failures of the attempts to make a new political community
(Roman Italy), and new Roman citizens scattered across the
peninsula - a dramatic and important story in that, while Italy was
being built, Rome was falling apart; and while the Roman Republic
fell, the Italian municipal system endured, and made possible the
government, and even the survival, of the Roman empire in the West.
