Mussolini's Camps: Civilian Internment in Fascist Italy (1940-1943): Routledge Studies in the Modern History of Italy
Autor Carlo Capogreco Traducere de Norma Bouchard, Valerio Fermeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2021
Published in Italian (I campi del duce, Turin: Einaudi, 2004), in Croatian (Mussolinijevi Logori, Zagreb: Golden Marketing – Tehnička knjiga, 2007), in Slovenian (Fašistična taborišča, Ljublana: Publicistično društvo ZAK, 2011), and now in English, Mussolini’s Camps is both an excellent product of academic research and a narrative easily accessible to readers who are not professional historians. It undermines the myth that concentration camps were established in Italy only after the creation of the Republic of Salò and the Nazi occupation of Italy’s northern regions in 1943, and questions the persistent and traditional image of Italians as brava gente (good people), showing how Fascism made extensive use of the camps (even in the occupied territories) as an instrument of coercion and political control.

Recenzii
"A book that presents irrefutable documentary evidence and is of key importance for any assessment and historical judgment of Italian Fascism and its nature." Simon Levis Sullam, University of Venice, Italy
"Mussolini’s Camps is first and foremost a historical essay, yet laudably written so as to reach a wider audience … At the same time, it is a tale of research, discovery and denunciation." Michele Sarfatti, Foundation Jewish Contemporary Documentation Center, Milan, Italy
"Capogreco painstakingly reconstructs the map of Italy’s concentration camp system, thus turning the existence of such a system, the rules governing it, the discriminatory logic buttressing it into an inescapable issue." David Bidussa, Giangiacomo Feltrinelli Foundation, Milan, Italy
"Mussolini’s Camps is crucial for a full understanding of Fascism." Bruno Bongiovanni, University of Turin, Italy
"The author’s merit rests especially on his having brought to light a topic almost entirely absent from Italy’s public awareness and which has mostly been neglected by historical research as well." Ruth Nattermann, Bundeswehr University Munich, Germany
"Capogreco has provided the clearest, most precise and most effective overview to date of Fascist civilian internment … His work sets a good example on how to write objectively about delicate and tragic chapters in human history." Petar Strčić, Society for Croatian History and University of Zagreb, Croatia
"We will find in Capogreco the kind of sound, comprehensive overview of Fascist civilian internment that was missing until now." Damijan Guštin, Institute of Contemporary History, Ljubljana, Slovenia
"AfterMussolini’s Camps, our understanding and our mental map of the Fascist regime’s policy and practice of internment – of its very existence as a system, as well as its vast scope and multiple functioning – was transformed." Robert S.C. Gordon, University of Cambridge, UK

Descriere
This book – which is based on vast archival research and on a variety of primary sources – has filled a gap in Italy’s historiography on Fascism, and in European and World history about concentration camps in our contemporary world.
