Italy’s Foreign Policy in the 1980s: from Enthusiasm to Disillusion; Antonio Varsori -- Part II Foreign Policy Goals and Economic Ambitions -- 6. Mercantilism and Class Struggle: The Italian Economy in the International Context from 1960 to 1990; Francesco Petrini -- 7.

The Emergence of Global Environmentalism: A Challenge for Italian Foreign Policy?; Sara Lorenzini -- 10. Air, Space and Techno-science Innovation in Italian Foreign Policy during the 1970s and the 1980s; David Burigana -- 11. Decay and Catharsis: Perceptions of the United States in Italian Political Cultures Between the 1960s and 1970s; Valentine Lomellini and Benedetto Zaccaria -- 12. Development Cooperation, 1958-1992: Party Politics and a Foreign Policy Débâcle; Elena Calandri.

This edited collection offers a new approach to the study of Italy’s foreign policy from the 1960s to the end of the Cold War, highlighting its complex and sometimes ambiguous goals, due to the intricacies of its internal system and delicate position in the fault line of the East-West and North-South divides. According to received opinion, during the Cold War era Italy was more an object rather than a factor in active foreign policy, limiting itself to paying lip service to the Western alliance and the European integration process, without any pretension to exerting a substantial international influence. Eleven contributions by leading Italian historians reappraise Italy’s international role, addressing three complex and intertwined issues, namely, the country’s political-diplomatic dimension; the economic factors affecting Rome’s international stance; and Italy’s role in new approaches to the international system and the influence of political parties’ cultures in the nation’s foreign policy.
