I diari e le agende di Luca Pietromarchi (1938-1940)
Il conte Luca Pietromarchi (1895-1978), entrato al Ministero degli Esteri nel 1930, fu uno stretto collaboratore del ministro Galeazzo Ciano. Durante la partecipazione dell’Italia fascista alla guerra civile in Spagna dal 1936 al 1939 diresse l’Ufficio Spagna. A partire dallo scoppio della Seconda Guerra Mondiale e fino al giugno 1940 presiedette l’Ufficio Guerra Economica che si occupava dei problemi legati al blocco marittimo applicato da Francia e Inghilterra contro l’Italia. Dopo l’entrata in guerra, Ciano pose il diplomatico alla guida del Gabinetto Armistizio e Pace. Negli anni seguenti, tale ufficio fu competente per gli affari politici ed economici nelle zone d’occupazion...
Oil Exploration, Diplomacy, and Security in the Early Cold War
The importance of oil for national military-industrial complexes appeared more clearly than ever in the Cold War. This volume argues that the confidential acquisition of geoscientific knowledge was paramount for states, not only to provide for their own energy needs, but also to buttress national economic and geostrategic interests and protect energy security. By investigating the postwar rebuilding and expansion of French and Italian oil industries from the second half of the 1940s to the early 1960s, this book shows how successive administrations in those countries devised strategies of oil exploration and transport, aiming at achieving a higher degree of energy autonomy and setting up powerful oil agencies that could implement those strategies. However, both within and outside their national territories, these two European countries had to confront the new Cold War balances and the interests of the two superpowers.
The Soviet World
The Soviet World, first published in 1965, examines both the domestic society of the Soviet Union under Khrushchev and its foreign relations with the capitalist world. Khrushchev offered a challenge to the West, to compare the practical benefits to the people of communism and capitalism, and his foreign policies as much as his domestic policies aimed to prove the Soviet Union’s economic superiority to the United States.
Fascist Europe
By shedding light on an often-overlooked aspect of Fascism and Nazism, this book examines the ambitious plans for a new European order conceived by Italian intellectuals, historians, geographers, politicians, and even student representative of the Fascist University Groups (GUF). Through expert reconstruction of the debate on this envisaged order’s development, Monica Fioravanzo opens a window into the theoretical arena that shaped relationships between German, Italy and the other Axis nations and provides insight into how the project was anticipated to unite the Fascist regime in Italy and the Nazi Reich.
Nazi Europe and the Final Solution
In recent years scholars and researchers have turned their attention to the attitudes of ordinary men [and women]A during the period of the persecution of the Jews in occupied Europe. This comprehensive work addresses the disturbing question of how people reacted when their neighbours were ostracized, humiliated, deported and later murdered.
Fascist Italy and the League of Nations, 1922-1935
This book analyses the relationship between Fascist Italy and the League of Nations in the interwar years. By uncovering the traces of those Italians working in the organization, this volume investigates Fascist Italy’s membership of the League, and explores the dynamics between nationalism and internationalism in Geneva. The relationship between Fascist Italy and the League of Nations was contradictory, shifting from active collaboration to open disagreement. Previous literature has not reflected this oscillation in policy, focusing disproportionally on the problems Italy caused for the League, such as the Ethiopian crisis. Yet Fascist Italy remained in the League for more than fifteen years, and was the third largest power within the institution. How did a Fascist dictatorship fit into an organization espousing principles of liberal internationalism? By using archival sources from four countries, Elisabetta Tollardo shows that Fascist Italy was much more concerned with, and involved in, the League than currently believed.
Uncertain Refuge
Texts of interviews conducted in the mid-1980s for the television documentary "Il coraggio e la pietà". The interviewees included Holocaust survivors and former Italian officials. The survivors stressed that they managed to survive in wartime Italy due to the sympathetic stance of non-Jewish Italians, military and civil, who, while supporting fascism, refused to collaborate with the Nazis in the annihilation of the Jewish people. Pp. xv-xxiii contain a foreword by Renzo de Felice; pp. xxv-xxxiv contain an introduction by F.R. Koffler and R. Koffler; pp. xxxv-xli contain a prologue by Mario Toscano, relating briefly the history of the Italian Jews and fascist policy towards the Jews in 1936-45.
