Antonio Gramsci used the term 'passive revolution' to describe the
limitations and weaknesses of the 19th century bourgeois state in
Italy which permitted economic development whilst thwarting social
and political progress. This detailed study consists of seven
essays each exploring a different theme of the economic and social
basis of the Liberal state, providing a broad understanding of the
background against the emergence of Italian fascism and present a
number of debates and controversies amongst Italian historians. By
critical discussion of Gramsci's reading of modern Italian history,
the essays present an analysis of the structure and development of
social and economic relations in the formation of the Liberal
state, illustrating the transition from liberalism to fascism.
