Università Roma Tre

The course is divided in two parts carried out by two different teachers. The first, held by prof. Antonio D’Alessandri, focuses on the historical events of the Italian nation during Nineteenth century. Particular attention is paid to the formation of the Italian national movement, within the broader framework of Europe during the so-called century of nationalities. The analysis deals with the many insurrectional attempts up to the crucial years of national unification. Then, the main problems of the new unitary state are tackled: from internal politics to the difficult search for an adequate international position for the country, until the start of the First World War.
The second part, taught by prof. Anna Scarantino, focuses on the historical events happening between First World War and the crisis of the so-called First Republic. Insights will include, in particular, fascism (movement and regime) and the evolution of democracy in the Republican Italy, through the consolidation and following decline of the traditional political parties and their respective political cultures. The analysis will take into account the contemporary social and cultural transformations within the country.
