Show Notes
In the years following the First World War, the Italian fascist movement appropriated the symbol of the veteran as a new revolutionary political force. In this episode of the Strategy Bridge Podcast we talk about the fascist myth of the veteran with Dr. Angel Alcalde. Alcalde is the author of "War Veterans and Fascism in Interwar Europe" and is a lecturer in Twentieth Century European History at the School of Historical and Philosophical Studies at the University of Melbourne.
