Railways and the Formation of the Italian State in the Nineteenth Century - Cambridge Studies in Italian History and Culture
Schram, Albert (Researcher, Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica)
This book relates the history of Italian railways and their relation with the Italian state from the 1840s, when the first lines were constructed, until nationalization in 1905. During the nineteenth century and the process of unification, it is argued that railways had a pernicious and divisive influence on Italian political life.
