Summary
'On the Edge of Democracy' is a detailed case study of the dual political transformation that Italy underwent between 1943 and 1948: from monarchy to Republic, and from fascism to democracy. Stepping away from examining formal political activity, Forlenza focuses on the hopes, fears, and expectations that the public formulated under conditions of political and existential uncertainty.
