ITALY AND THE GLOBALIZATION AGE: FROM THE 1970s TO THE CRISIS OF THE SECOND REPUBLIC.
The course will analyse Italian recent history and the increasing pace of globalization since 1970s. It will start from the exploration of the political, social, economic and cultural developments in Italy from 1968 to the end of Cold War and the crisis of the First Republic, in order to facilitate the understanding of the main interpretation issues of the Second Republic addressed later.
