Program

A century after the March on Rome in 1922, a new space has been opened for historians to reflect on and rethink the categories of Fascism and Resistance. Through the analysis of politics of memory, institutions, lieux de mémoire and celebrations, the history of Italy, between Fascism and the Republic, enters into dialogue, with a comparative gaze, with the international context. Our initiative aims, through the exploration of the use of history in the public sphere, to critically analyze these today’s memorial spaces.

This international workshop is organized by the Students of the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master’s degree “History in the Public Sphere”, with the support of the Universities of the Consortium and in partnership with the Istituto Nazionale Ferruccio Parri.
