Women in Fascist Italy from 1922 to 1945
[ send me this paper ]
This 10 page report discusses the role of women in Fascist Italy in the decades prior to World War II. Women under Italian fascism had two major roles, loyalty to Benito Mussolini and loyalty to husband and family. Mussolini was committed to an ambitious modernization program: draining swamps, developing hydroelectricity and improving the railways. His ideas of modernization did not apply to the role of women in Italian society. Women, according to Mussolini, were baby producers and wives. The extreme nature of Fascism, as well as its clearly self-serving agenda created an environment in which the women of Italy were unlikely to have the opportunity for emancipation at any level. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
