Reviews for Ideological Profile of Twentieth-Century Italy
One of Choice's Outstanding Academic Titles for 1996 Noberto Bobbio's survey of intellectual traditions in Italy throughout this century is a welcome and timely contribution to Italian historiography. As a guide to the currents of thought, debates and publications that have both informed and disparaged Italy's democratic development this volume is indispensable.
