This new volume edited by two significant scholars of Italian history and politics offers students and scholars a sweeping overview of the modern history of a country that has played a crucial role in the history of Europe over the past two centuries.A team of experts scrutinises the main political, cultural, and socio-economic features and the historical “turning points” of this still relatively young state. It also explores the forces behind the unification of Italy in the 1860s, the rise of fascism under Benito Mussolini, the hammer blows of both world wars, the impact of the Cold War, and the modernisation of Italian society and high levels of politicisation in national life through recent decades, including the Silvio Berlusconi years and the re-emergence of right-wing politics.

This book offers a history of contemporary Italy from the collapse of Mussolini to the present, placing this major Euro-Mediterranean country in a wider geo-political perspective. It examines how Italian history and politics developed in relation to - and were shaped by - the international context, from the Cold War and NATO to the European integration process and the global challenges of 1989. Umberto Gentiloni Silveri highlights all major events, structural limits, contradictions and conflicts influencing Italian democracy and the political system until today. He explores the continuous tension between 'stabilization' and 'conflict', between the promise of an innovative and evolutionary representative democracy on the one hand and the constraints of a political system conditioned by structural limits and old contradictions on the other.
