Published in 1998. Was the Italian Communist Party (PCI) a typical
Social Democratic party in tune with the programmatic principles of
the Second International? What is the appropriate context within
which the strategies of 'historic compromise' and Eurocommunism in
the 1970s can be analyzed and understood? In what form and to what
extent has the process of European integration and the crisis of
Keynesianism contributed to the transformation of the party in
1989-91? What caused the collapse of the ruling political class of
the First Italian Republic? Why did the transformed PCI, the PDS
(Democratic Party of the Left), fail to lead the transition to the
Second Italian Republic between 1992 and 1996? Is there any link
between the party's historical factions and the current divisions
in the Italian Left? Is it possible to theorize and speculate upon
these divisions? Italy, Europe, the Left seeks to answer these
questions, debating conventional views and examining the extent to
which the end of the Cold War has contributed to a redefinition of
the Left's identity in Italy and Europe. The exemplary
methodological framework and the wider European perspective adopted
throughout, make the book an indispensable reading in the field of
Italian and European politics.
