Between Hollywood and Moscow: The Italian Communists and the Challenge of Mass Culture, 1943-1991
«The English edition of this book differs in several ways from the Italian edition, which was published in 1995 by Giunti under the title I comunisti italiani tra Hollywood e Mosca: la sfida della cultura di massa, 1943-91. This earlier version was substantially longer and contained extended treatments of Italian politics, popular culture, sexual mores, and consumption. For reasons of brevity and owing to the appearance of several volumes in English that provide detailed analyses of Communist politics and postwar Italian politics and society in general, it has been decided to concentrate here on the cultural activities and policies of the PCI» (p. 10. Cf. also fn. 7, pp. 219-20).
