Professor de Grazia focuses on the dopolavoro or fascist leisure-time organization, the largest of the regime's mass institutions. She traces its gradual rise in importance for the consolidation of fascist rule; its spread in the form of thousands of local clubs into every domain of urban and rural life; and its overwhelming impact on the distribution, consumption, and character of all kinds of recreational pursuits - from sports and adult education to movies, traveling theaters, radio, and tourism. The author shows how fascism was able, between 1926 and 1939, to build a new definition of the public sphere. Recasting the public sphere entailed dispensing with traditional class and politically defined modes of organizing those social roles and desires existing outside the workplace.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51939425616160,"sku":"NEW0521526914","price":63.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-culture-of-consent-mass-organisation-of-leisure-in-fascist-italy-0521526914","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
