Conclusions. 330 $aThis open access book investigates the pathologisation of homosexuality during the fascist regime in Italy through an analysis of the case of G., a man with "homosexual tendencies" interned in the Collegno mental health hospital in 1928. No systematic study exists on the possibility that Fascism used internment in an asylum as a tool of repression for LGBT people, as an alternative to confinement on an island, prison or home arrests. This research offers evidence that in some cases it did. The book highlights how the dictatorship operated in a low-key, shadowy and undetectable manner, bending pre-existing legislation. Its brutality was - and still is - difficult to prove. It also emphasises the ways in which existing stereotypes on homosexuality were reinforced by the regime propaganda in support of its so-called moralising campaign and how families, the police and the medical professionals joined forces in implementing this form of repression. 410 0$aGenders and Sexualities in History,$x2730-9487 606 $aItaly$xHistory 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 606 $aEthnology 606 $aScience$xHistory 606 $aSocial history 606 $aHistory of Italy 606 $aCultural History 606 $aSociocultural Anthropology 606 $aHistory of Science 606 $aSocial History 606 $aLGBTQ+ incarcerated people$2homoit$3https://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000887 606 $aDetention of LGBTQ+ people$2homoit$3https://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000348 606 $aLGBTQ+ incarceration$2homoit$3https://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000884 615 0$aItaly$xHistory. 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aScience$xHistory. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 14$aHistory of Italy. 615 24$aCultural History. 615 24$aSociocultural Anthropology. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aSocial History. 615 7$aLGBTQ+ incarcerated people. 615 7$aDetention of LGBTQ+ people. 615 7$aLGBTQ+ incarceration. 676 $a945 676 $a945 686 $aHIS020000$aHIS054000$aSCI034000$aSOC032000$2bisacsh 700 $aRomano$b Gabriella$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$010827 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910342950403321 996 $aThe Pathologisation of Homosexuality in Fascist Italy$92229523 997 $aUNINA
