Lo que ocurrió realmente el 23 de febrero de 1981 está claro hoy: no fue un intento de golpe de estado, sino una operación especial para reparar el sistema político. Una operación con la que estaba de acuerdo la mayor parte de la clase dirigente, y, por supuesto, la institución monárquica.

Al congresso socialista di Livorno del 1921 il patriarca del riformismo italiano Filippo Turati partecipa nelle vesti dell’imputato principale. Quando la maggioranza dei delegati si rifiuta di espellerlo dal PSI assieme ai suoi compagni, come pretende la neonata Terza Internazionale, i delegati comunisti abbandonano i lavori per dare vita al loro partito.
