Tradizione socialista e martirologio antimafia. La memoria di Lorenzo Panepinto e Bernardino Verro

Abstract

Socialist victims of the Mafia, Bernardino Verro and Lorenzo Panepinto were killed in the 1910s (1911 and 1915). For a long time, they were commemorated by the Socialist Party, which celebrated them as victims of the class struggle. However, as Marxist identities weakened in the 20th century, their memory was increasingly discussed as part of a debate on mafia victims. The essay aims to study this shift.
