It provides, for the first time, a survey of the different types of internment practiced by Fascist Italy during the war and a historical map of its concentration camps. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePublished in Italian (\u003cem\u003eI campi del duce\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eTurin: Einaudi, 2004), in Croatian (\u003ci\u003eMussolinijevi Logori\u003c\/i\u003e, Zagreb: Golden Marketing - Tehnička knjiga, 2007), in Slovenian (\u003cem\u003eFasistična taborisča\u003c\/em\u003e, Ljublana: Publicistično drustvo ZAK, 2011), and now in English, \u003ci\u003eMussolini's Camps \u003c\/i\u003eis both an excellent product of academic research and a narrative easily accessible to readers who are not professional historians. It undermines the myth that concentration camps were established in Italy only after the creation of the Republic of Salò and the Nazi occupation of Italy's northern regions in 1943, and questions the persistent and traditional image of Italians as \u003ci\u003ebrava gente\u003c\/i\u003e (good people), showing how Fascism made extensive use of the camps (even in the occupied territories) as an instrument of coercion and political control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carlo Capogreco\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138333085\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138333086\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/27\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.20w x 0.90d","brand":"Carlo Capogreco","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48113274683647,"sku":"9781138333086","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b3fb204b-bbdc-4747-860a-ec0737dbe522.jpg?v=1769614022","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mussolinis-camps-carlo-capogreco-9781138333086","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
