对几乎所有国家来说,第一次世界大战都是一场空前的灾难,但意大利的经历尤其具有灾难性的后果。虚弱而痛苦的意大利试图与60万人的死亡和整整一代人的战斗军事化达成协议,但未能达成协议,诞生了一种新的政治生活形式:法西斯主义。理查德博斯沃思带来了生活的时期,意大利人参加了一个巨大的,最终毁灭性的政治实验下,他们的独裁者,贝尼托墨索里尼,和他的法西斯追随者。法西斯主义者是第一批极权主义者,旨在彻底重塑意大利及其人民。他们的政权建立在对暴力和服从的崇拜之上。然而,尽管如此,意大利人还是找到了巧妙的方法来适应、限制、削弱和消除墨索里尼对他们的野心。这本书的核心是它与这些普通意大利人和他们的家庭的生活,在可怕的时代挣扎。博斯沃思创造了一个强大的,似是而非的和有趣的图片意大利生活和政权-作为世界冲向灾难的第二次世界大战-是迫使羞辱,失败,入侵和彻底崩溃的民族国家。
For almost all nations, the First World War was an unparalleled disaster, but the Italian experience especially was to have catastrophic consequences. Weakened and embittered, trying and failing to come to terms with 600,000 dead and with an entire generation of men militarized by fighting, Italy gave birth to a new form of political life: Fascism. Richard Bosworth brings to life the period when Italians participated in a vast and ultimately ruinous political experiment under their dictator, Benito Mussolini, and his fascist henchmen. The fascists were the first totalitarians, aiming to reshape Italy and its people utterly. Their regime was based on a cult of violence and obedience. Yet, despite this, Italians found ingenious ways of adapting, limiting, undermining and ridiculing Mussolini's ambitions for them. The heart of this book is its engagement with the life of these ordinary Italians and their families, struggling through terrible times. Bosworth creates a powerful, plausible and entertaining picture of Italian life and a regime which - as the world hurtled towards the cataclysm of the Second World War - was to force humiliation, defeat, invasion and the utter collapse of the nation state.
