Abstract

Politician Aldo Moro was abducted and killed in 1978 by the terrorist organization Red Brigades. The media then stylized Moro as a «state martyr». The volume deals with the highly topical question concerning the performativity of this concept in the tension between democratic state and terrorism and reconstructs a crucial phase of post-war time policy in Italy on the basis of media sources on the Moro case. What performs a term from Christian antiquity within modern socio-political discourses? What changes has the term "martyr" undergone in European religious and cultural history? On the basis of these questions, the study opens up an interdisciplinary theoretical horizon to understand the role of religious motives in socio-political con-texts. It brings a central new dimension to the secularization debate, which sees secularization as a new configuration of politics and religion.

Abstract

This book represents the first systematic research by a social scientist on the radical right-wing movements in Italy since 1945. During the heyday of right-wing violence between 1969 and 1980, street aggressions, attacks, and murders were commonplace. These bloody episodes were assumed to be the work of fanatical bands of "political soldiers" and urban warriors loosely controlled by secret services and other covert groups, which used them as part of a "strategy of tension" pursued in domestic and international circles. Franco Ferraresi here acknowledges that these rightist groups were in fact permitted a certain amount of freedom, and even in some cases actually aided, in the hope that revulsion at terrorist tactics would have the effect of mobilizing public opinion in favor of existing political arrangements. However, he also studies the extent to which they operated as autonomous units, while he carefully considers the political heritage, the doctrines, and the ideology that motivated them. With the decline of violent activity on both extremes of the political spectrum in the early 1980's, the theory and practice so comprehensively discussed by Ferraresi seemed to have entered a dormant stage. Ferraresi, however, places in context the recent resurgence of neo-fascist forces in Italy, and of the so-called New Right throughout Europe, together with the rise of fundamentalism in many parts of the world.

Abstract

The changing attitude of Catholic culture towards modernity. After decades of a problematic, if not plainly hostile, approach to modernity by Catholic culture, the 1960s marked the beginning of a new era. As the Church employed a more positive approach to the world, voices in the Catholic milieu embraced a radical perspective, channeling the need for social justice for the poor and the oppressed. The alternative and complementary world views of 'universalism' and 'liberation' would drive the engagement of Catholics for generations to come, shaping the idea of international community in Catholic culture. Because of its traditional connection with the papacy and because of its prominent role in the map of European progressive Catholicism, Italy stands out as an ideal case study to follow these dynamics. By locating the Italian scenario in a broader geographical frame, 'Universalism and Liberation' offers a new vantage point from which to investigate the social and political relevance of religion in an age of crisis.

Abstract

La chute du communisme et l’effondrement économique des pays de l’Est ont donné au Plan Marshall du relief, voire de l’actualité : les responsables économiques et politiques ne se lassent pas d’interroger, à la lumière de la nouvelle donne mondiale, ce transfert financier et idéologique qui contribua, en grande partie, au redressement de l’Europe d’après-guerre. Quarante-cinq ans plus tard, il était plus que temps de dresser un état sérieux de cette question, jamais traitée dans son ensemble. Les spécialistes - historiens, économistes, responsables politiques - qui ont participé au colloque international qui lui fut consacré à Bercy sous l’égide du Comité pour l’histoire économique et financière, livrent ici leurs études et leurs réflexions. Ne se limitant pas à l’Europe et aux États-Unis, mais débordant aussi sur l’Extrême-Orient, celles-ci couvrent tous les aspects du Plan Marshall : économiques, industriels, financiers, mais aussi politiques, diplomatiques ou idéologiques...
