‘This is a key book on the history of neo-fascism in Italy in a global context. As Matteo Albanese demonstrates, post-war fascists inhabited a transnational galaxy of overt enemies of equality and constitutional democracy. From terrorism to coup attempts and, at times, finding common ground with the illiberal right and the State in the name of anti-communism, the paths of neo-fascists represented a complex history of adaptation to the Cold War global context, one where power was no longer in the present but in a then improbably new order. Their post-war transnational histories of acting within democracy in order to downgrade it, and ultimately to permanently subvert it in the future, show important precedents for understanding our present.’Federico Finchelstein, The New School for Social Research, USA‘Matteo Albanese has written an important monograph on the transnational aspects of the far right which have implications on contemporary Italian as well as European politics.’Andrea Mammone, Sapienza University of Rome, Italy
