- Title
Una storia politico-militare del brigantaggio.
- Authors
Albergoni, Gianluca
- Abstract
This article examines Carmine Pinto's volume on the conflict that, at the time of Italian unification in the South, juxtaposed the supporters and opponents of this process across continental Italy, focusing on the most famous and dramatic expression of this divide, represented by the phenomenon of «brigandage». After describing the contents of the volume, the author underlines how the analytical approach Pinto adopted, which was mainly political-military, left some of the more «classic» questions raised in the historiography several decades ago unanswered. These are issues on the subject of the politicisation of the popular classes that, today, are still worthy of investigation.
