From the mid-1880s a shopkeeper movement developed in Milan,
centred around a shopkeeper newspaper, a federation of shopkeeper
trade associations, and a shopkeeper bank. In 1904 shopkeeper
representatives initiated a sequence of events that led to the fall
of the first radical-socialist administration within the city. The
author explains these events with reference to the business of
shopkeeping itself. He analyses the trades, techniques, tax
structure and topography of the Milanese retail sector, and traces
the history of the contest between shops and cooperatives and the
shopkeeper's changing relationship with his employees and with his
clientele. The final chapter confronts the crucial question of why
the Milanese shopkeepers were to be found on the political right in
the years leading up to the Fascist takeover. This is the first
book to deal with any aspect of the Italian petite bourgeoisie.
