Italian Neofascism

Making use of the literature on national reconciliation and narrative psychology theory, this book examines the fight over the 'judicial' and the 'historical' truth in Italy today, through a contrasting analysis of judicial findings and the 'narratives of victimhood' prevalent among representatives of both the post- and the neo-fascist right.

During the Cold War Italy witnessed the existence of an anomalous version of a civil conflict, defined as a ''creeping'' or a ''low-intensity'' civil war. Political violence escalated, including bomb attacks against civilians, starting with a massacre in Milan, on 12 December 1969, and culminating with the massacre in Bologna, on 2 August 1980. Making use of the literature on national reconciliation and narrative psychology theory, this book examines the fight over the ''judicial'' and the ''historical'' truth in Italy today, through a contrasting analysis of judicial findings and the ''narratives of victimhood'' prevalent among representatives of both the post- and the neo-fascist right.
