Commemorating Italian fascism's seizure of power, the Decennale was celebrated by the regime in a deliberate attempt to radicalize the original movement and develop it into an imperial and racist regime. In Mussolini's Decennale, Antonio Morena explores a cross-section of Italian culture during the Decennale. Studying literature, speeches, documentaries, films, textbooks, and the 1932 Exhibition, he discusses how the regime, its patrons, and even its critics all appropriated the historical events of 1922 for their political advantage. Positioning the 1932 anniversary celebrations as the crux of the fascist transition from conservatism to totalitarianism, Mussolini's Decennale broadens our understanding of fascist ideology, cultural politics, and Realpolitik."--Publisher's website.Toronto Italian studies.Fascism and cultureItalyHistory20th centuryFascismItalyHistory20th centuryFascisme et cultureItalieHistoire20e siècleFascismeItalieHistoire20e siècleItalyIntellectual life20th centuryItalyPolitics and government1922-1945ItalieVie intellectuelle20e siècleItaliePolitique et gouvernement1922-1945Libros electronicos.Fascism and cultureHistoryFascismHistoryFascisme et cultureHistoireFascismeHistoire945.091Morena Antonio, 1731562DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910838251303321Mussolini's Decennale4144478UNINA
