The Routledge Handbook of Italian Fascism and Neofascism, (Hardcover)

<p>This important new reference work reassesses Fascism in the Italian context and its postwar manifestations by analysing its influence across three historical phases, analysing the tensions shaping both the Mussolini regime and the post-fascist far right.</p><p>Integrating political history, movement studies, and geopolitics, it charts the ideological and organisational complexity of the Italian far right in parliamentary and extra-parliamentary contexts. Challenging conventional readings of "neofascism," it argues that many post-war formations are better understood through their alignment with U.S.-led Western geopolitical radicalism.</p><p>By foregrounding geopolitics as a central fault line, the volume offers new tools for interpreting continuity and change, making it an essential resource for professors and researchers.</p>
