In tracing the development of industrial associations in Italy from
1906 to 1934, this study challenges traditional interpretations of
the rise of Fascism. Unlike other studies on industrialists and
Fascism, which begin with the post-World War I crisis of
liberalism, Professor Adler reconstitutes the prior relations
between industrialists and Italian liberalism and then situates
industrialists within the crisis and the subsequent transition to
Fascism. Applying a hermeneutic approach to public and private
texts produced by industrial associations, Adler uncovers the
industrialists' self-constitution as a class, especially that
subjective dimension of their development which accounts for
collective consciousness, a sense of agency, and the will to act
politically. Particular attention is paid to the ideological
dimension of this development; the formative self-understandings,
performative practices, and durable dispositions of this class; as
well as their strategic, instrumental, and self-interested
interventions in social and political life.
