Scrivere su un’isola. Esuli a Malta nella prima metà dell’Ottocento

Chiara Maria Pulvirenti — 2024-08-06

During the long Italian Risorgimento, the archipelago of Malta became the favorite asylum of several exiles from the Italian peninsula. The geographical proximity and the vocation to maritime trade of the island, the substantial tolerance of the British government towards immigration, and the use of Italian as the language of the culture were decisive reasons why the conspirators chose it as a refuge. In particular, in the early 1800s and the aftermath of the liberal revolutions of the 1820s poets and writers reached the island which became a place of literary and political experimentation.

Italia e Gran Bretagna verso l’intesa mediterranea del 1887

Alessio Lombardi — 2024-08-06

In the wake of the historiography dedicated to the Mediterranean agreements reached by Italy between the second half of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century, the contribution aimed to bring to light the meticulous diplomatic action that the Robilant ministry implemented in London to strengthen Italy's position in the Mediterranean and in the Triple Alliance. The script suggests that the dialogue with the British power was characterized by a dense exchange of opinions, which often proved to be very similar and cordial, testifying to the perpetuation of the friendship that traditionally linked the two countries. The Mediterranean Entente quickly reached in February 1887 gave further proof of this friendship and allowed Italy to benefit from it by guaranteeing it a role of primary importance in the new system of alliances that was being formed, becoming the irreplaceable pivot of the link between Berlin, Vienna and London.

Il sindacalismo “bianco” nella crisi dell’Italia liberale

Federico Goddi — 2024-08-06

This study contributes to the field of trade union studies within the context of crisis in liberal Italy. Specifically, it aims to explore the experience of “white” trade unionism from the early 20th century up to the factory occupations in September 1920. The investigation begins with the evolution of mutual aid societies, which failed to adapt to the structural changes in the capital-labor relationship brought about by industrialization. The stark differences between the old and new economies became particularly evident during the factory occupations, marking a pivotal point for analyzing two critical aspects: the evolution of Christian social thought amidst peak tensions between workers and companies in liberal Italy, and the internal dynamics within the newly founded Italian Confederation of Workers (Cil). A comparative analysis of the Catholic-inspired trade union and the Italian People’s Party enriches the discussion, which is further supplemented by examining the editorial stance of the Catholic periodical «Il momento» of Turin. The analysis elucidates the actions of the ‘white’ trade organization, the National Union of Metalworkers (Snom), highlighting its significant impact on the labor disputes of 1920, which extended well beyond its numerical representation among organized workers.

L’ “indimenticabile” 1956 e la sinistra italiana. Il dibattito socialista tra centro e periferia

Emiliano Di Antonio — 2024-08-06

This essay examines the internal debate within the Italian Socialist Party (Psi) in 1956, a crucial year for both Italian and international politics. Through detailed analysis, the work compares the discussions taking place at the party's top levels with those occurring at its grassroots. The year 1956 was marked by significant events such as de-Stalinization and the Hungarian Revolution, which profoundly impacted the internal dynamics of the entire Italian left. At the top of the Socialist Party, leaders were divided between loyalty to united action with the communists and the necessity of giving socialism a new political dimension. Meanwhile, at the grassroots level, party members, voters, and local leaders expressed practical and ideological concerns, often reflecting the daily tensions within the Italian left at the time. This essay, based on newspaper articles, party documents, and letters from the Psi's grassroots, seeks to provide a comprehensive view of the differences and similarities between the positions of the party's central leadership and its grassroots, contributing to a more complete understanding of the internal dynamics of this party during one of the most tumultuous periods in its history.
