Abstract

The paper analyses the debate in the 1990s on Antifascism and the birth of the Italian republic. Its main hypothesis is that this debate was deeply influenced by the historiographical reflection on Fascism. The paper focuses especially on the 1995 conference Antifascismi e Resistenze. The interpretation of Antifascism introduced at the conference highlighted the contribution the literature on Fascism made to comprehend the distinctive features of Antifascism.
