Davide Rodogno

Fascism's European Empire

Italian Occupation During the Second World War

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A controversial reappraisal of the Italian occupation of the Mediterranean during the Second World War which Davide Rodogno examines for the first time within the framework of fascist imperial ambitions. He explores Italy's relationship with Germany, economic exploitation, the forced 'Italianisation' of the annexed territories, collaboration, and Italian policies towards refugees and Jews. He also compares Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany through their dreams of imperial conquest, and the role of racism and anti-Semitism. This is a groundbreaking contribution to genocide, resistance, war crimes, and occupation studies.
