Fascism, Architecture, and the Claiming of Modern Milan, 19221943 chronicles
the dramatic architectural and urban transformation of Milan during the
nearly twenty years of fascist rule. The commercial and financial
centre of Italy and the birthplace of fascism, Milan played a central
role in constructing fascisms national image and identity as it
advanced from a revolutionary movement to an established state power.
Using
a wide range of archival sources, Lucy M. Maulsby analyses the public
buildings, from the relatively modest party headquarters to the
grandiose Palace of Justice and the Palazzo del Popolo dItalia,
through which Mussolini intended to enhance the citys image and
solidify fascisms presence in Milan. Maulsby establishes the extent to
which Milans economic structure, social composition, and cultural
orientation affected Il Duces plans for the city,
demonstrating the influences on urban development that were beyond the
control of the fascist regime. By placing Milans urban change in its
historic context, this book expands our understanding of the
relationship between fascism and the modern city.
