Mussolini also did good things - Francesco Filippi

Description

Book in Italian Bollati Boringhieri

More than seventy years after the fall of fascism, the hydra has never raised its head again, especially on the Internet, but not only. Phrases repeated as jokes for years, which seemed harmless and laughable until not long ago, are increasingly making their way in Italy with a completely different objective. And they take hold. Historiography has investigated fascism and the figure of Mussolini in all its details and continues to do so. The picture that has been drawn by the vast majority of scholars is that of a despotic, violent, short-sighted and mostly incompetent regime. The agreement among scholars, who know the history well, is quite solid and there is no lack of data. But those who don't know history well - and perhaps have a specific political agenda in mind - have an easy time taking up those ancient stories and passing them off as truth.
