The Fascist regime under Mussolini regarded its youth as its best hope for the future. Young people were courted more assiduously than any other group in the society and their political socialization became a central concern of the government. Believe, Obey, Fight discusses the various tools used by the Fascist regime from 1922 to 1943 to shape the political values and environment of the young. Tracy Koon focuses on the secondary agents of socialization, including the party, the educational establishment, youth groups, and the media of political communication. She shows that the response to this socialization ranged from apparent consent to dissent and finally to open opposition. The regime ...
Lane shows how globalisation has transformed the Mafia into more than simply a local phenomenon. It describes in painful detail the daily accommodation to Mafia pressure endured by priests, politicians and prosecutors, businessmen, trade unionists and ordinary citizens. At the same time he incorporates a portrait of the South's long and tumultuous history and powerful flavours to provide a richly coloured portrait of a European region under siege.

Cosa precede il momento della pensione, ben triste, per un giudice da sempre schierato in prima linea? L’autore in queste pagine narra i tratti salienti della sua vita di uomo e magistrato.

Dans ce deuxième tome, Louis de Ny nous propose d‘effectuer une nouvelle plongée au coeur du Petit Monde du Rock progressif Italien. Il y a bien sûr à nouveau une sélection d'albums d'hier et d'aujourd'hui avec une fois de plus beaucoup de découvertes à savourer et de curiosités à explorer. Il en profite aussi pour revenir longuement sur les années quatre-vingt et ainsi compléter son anthologie de ce courant musical si particulier et si riche dont la vitalité ne cesse de surprendre. La partie la plus originale est sûrement celle consacrée aux musiciens actuels du mouvement progressif italien. Ce sont eux qui s'expriment directement dans ce livre, qui nous permettent d'entrer dans leur sphère et ainsi de mieux comprendre ce qui les fait avancer dans un contexte général économiquement peu porteur et culturellement peu ouvert aux musiques progressives. Quand vous aurez terminé de lire ce livre, vous comprendrez alors mieux la signification de son sous-titre : Le Théâtre des émotions.
