Editorial Reviews

Review

“Ashley does a good job of analyzing changing policies and the accompanying arguments deployed in parliamentary debates and the press. She shows that vigorous debates took place about major policy changes that conflicted with preexisting sets of liberal beliefs.” ―Journal of Modern History

“Ashley's study is a valuable contribution to our understanding of the complexities of Italian liberalism after 1860.” ―
American Historical Review

“[A]shley provides an excellent study of the interplay between ideology and legislative solutions to real problems during the neglected decades from 1870 to 1900. . . . [S]tudents of European liberalism will profit from it.” ―
Journal of Modern Italian Studies

Review

Challenging a view prevalent among historians that Italian liberalism was ineffectual in developing solutions to social and political problems, and, by implication, that it doomed Italy to eventual Fascist dictatorship, Ashley's meticulous scholarship sustains a generally more positive depiction of Italian liberals and their accomplishments. Ashley's interpretation is likely to set the standard for further analysis and to define the major issues in this field for some time to come.
