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. Umberto Gentiloni Silveri is Full Professor of Contemporary History at Sapienza University of Rome, Italy. 410 0$aItalian and Italian American Studies,$x2635-294X 606 $aHistory, Modern 606 $aItaly$xHistory 606 $aSocial history 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 606 $aModern History 606 $aHistory of Italy 606 $aSocial History 606 $aCultural History 615 0$aHistory, Modern. 615 0$aItaly$xHistory. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 615 14$aModern History. 615 24$aHistory of Italy. 615 24$aSocial History. 615 24$aCultural History. 676 $a327.45 676 $a945.092 700 $aGentiloni Silveri$b Umberto$0145183 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910624389603321 996 $aThe History of Contemporary Italy 1943-2019$92963284 997 $aUNINA
