The Escapades of Little Fascist Italy

  • サマリー

  • On this week's episode of History Reconsidered, Sumantra Maitra and Jarrett Stepman talk about Fascist Italy between the wars. Stepman and Maitra explain what "fascism" really was and how it relates to socialism and other ideologies.


    They talk about Italy's attitude at the end of World War I and how Italian dictator Benito Mussolini gave the Italian people the notion of a return to Roman imperial greatness.


    But was Italy really a "great power" in the lead up to World War II? Italy's economy would suggest that it was not. Yet, it's conquest of Ethiopia made a mockery of the League of Nations and shattered the illusory notion of collective security, driving the European continent to war.
