Providing a comprehensive history of Italy from around 1800 to the
present, Italy in the Modern World traces the social and cultural
transformations that defined the lives of Italians during the 19th
and 20th century. The book focuses on how social relations (class,
gender and race), science and the arts shaped the political
processes of unification, state building, fascism and the postwar
world. Split up into four parts covering the making of Italy, the
liberal state, war and fascism, and the republic, the text draws on
secondary literature and primary sources in order to synthesize
current historiographical debates and provide primary documents for
classroom use. There are individual chapters on key topics, such as
unification, Italians in the world, Italy in the world, science and
the arts, fascism, the World Wars, the Cold War, and Italy in the
21st century, as well as a wealth of useful features for students,
including: * Comprehensive bibliographic essays covering each of
the four parts * 23 images and 12 maps Italy in the Modern World
also firmly places both the nation and its people in a wider global
context through a distinctly transnational approach. It is
essential reading for all students of modern Italian history.
