re: history of the Italian Communist Party

[Anon Anon <inprekorr@xxxxxxxxx>]

quickly i can think of four books, from quite
different perspectives:

Robert Lumley, "States of emergency, cultures of
revolt in Italy from 1968-1978" London, Verso, 1990.

"Italian Communists Speak for Themselves" edited by
Donald Sassoon, Spokesman, 1978.

see the relevant sections on Italy in Sassoon's "One
Hundred Years of Socialism: The West European Left in
the Twentieth Century" 1997.

Leninism: An Anthropological Perspective" London,
Pluto, 1990.
