The "Short Oxford History of Italy" series, in seven volumes,
offers a complete History of Italy from the early Middle Ages to
the present and, in each period, presents the most recent
historical perspectives on Italian history. This means setting
Italian history in the broader context of European history as a
whole. It also means questioning accepted interpretations of
Italian history in each of these periods and, in particular, the
idea that Italy's history has been significantly different from
that of the rest of Europe. Each volume emphasizes how developments
in Italy in each period are best understood as variants on broader
European patterns of political, economic social and cultural change
This volume sets in context the tremendous changes that Italy has
undergone since 1945. In place of the land of pizza, sunshine, and
soccer, McCarthy describes a developing nation: an economy that has
found its own road to success via the piccole imprese with an
increasingly strong stockmarket and more sophisticated banking; a
dynamic, traditional, family centred society; and a political
system struggling to modernize after 40 years of Christian Democrat
rule and Communist opposition. McCa
