How Fascism Ruled Women: Italy, 1922-1945 49551st Edition
Purchase options and add-ons
Always attentive to the great diversity among women and careful to distinguish fascist rhetoric from the practices that really shaped daily existence, the author moves with ease from the public discourse about femininity to the images of women in propaganda and commercial culture. She analyzes fascist attempts to organize women and the ways in which Mussolini's intentions were received by women as social actors. The first study of women's experience under Italian fascism, this is also a history of the making of contemporary Italian society.

In her book, Grazia has done an excellent job of detailing the myriad experiences of women under Mussolini's totalitarian rule and the conflicted nature of PNF expectations regarding women, with its promoted cult of domesticity and concurrent image of the new citizen and fixation on active youth. Grazia also addresses how the legacy of the defunct liberal culture of prewar Italy, the influence of the Church, the expanding American cultural revolution and the individual choices of Italian women contributed to their life, emancipation and personal experiences in Fascist Italy. From party policy to social organizations to actual work-a-day experiences, Grazia draws upon a wealth of sources and perspectives to address an extremely complicated and encompassing topic. Nonetheless, the themes of her book still manage to stand out. If you are interested in Fascism, womenfolk's experience within the totalitarian state or the progression of women rights in Italy, you should find "How Fascism Ruled Women" an insightful, comprehensive and enjoyable read.
