El arco histórico: de la democracia de masas a la democracia mediática

Abstract

The text presents a journey through Italian political history from the creation of the liberal democratic state at the beginning of the 20th century, the experience of integrating society into the fascist state, the construction of mass political parties in the postwar period to its dissolution by major social and political transformations that occurred in the eighties and nineties that fractured society, rendering the political system unstable and imposing another democracy where fractures, localisms, and exclusions reappear.
