Dopo la trincea: Gramsci, “L’Ordine Nuovo” e la rivoluzione italiana
Full text linkThrough the articles written by Antonio Gramsci during the first year and a half of release of “L’Ordine Nuovo”, you can see the development lines of what the author has established during the World War I on the historical and political analysis of Italian and European society. These ideas deal directly with Factory Council’s doctrine: Gramsci, inspired by the voluntary initia-tives in Turin factories, builds, since the summer of 1919, a revolutionary theory gathered on the role of working-class institutions. The extensive task of the Factory, in a devastated post-war industrial society, forces the political thinker to reshape the traditional functions of the two representative proletarian institutions: Labor Union and Political Party. Only rethinking about how they work, it’s possible to lead to success the revolutionary movement of the most aware Italian workers: from Turin industries can arise the future construction of Italian Soviet repub-lic that, after the victory of the Revolution in all countries, will be melted in international communist society. This theory stands in a particular position between socialist thinkers of that period, not only towards Reformists or Unitarians Maximalists, but also towards elements of the Communist faction that breaks up with the PSI during national congress of Livorno (Janu-ary 1921) to create a new revolutionary Party
17. Dall’etica alla politica: potenza e atto della virtù umana in Dante, tra Convivio e Monarchia
Full text linkThis paper moves from an analysis of the connection, in Dante’s Monarchia, between the activity of the Monarcha, who establishes the general Law, by which men can regain philosophical(-moral) virtue, and the multitudo, which includes all individuals and countries congregated in the political Empire. It is only in this universal political system that, according to Dante, humankind actualizes both intellectual and practical virtues. Possible only as a result of a righteous individual experience of life, in fact, virtue becomes actual if pursued within the collective experience of humankind as a whole, to be intended exactly as a unified and universal Monarchy. Dante can, therefore, show in the Latin treatise three stages of the human life on earth, where peculiar conditions of virtue are linked to specific political situations: 1. the individual, undermined by sin in his own rational nature, lives in a world where, since there is no universal authority, conflict prevails; 2. human beings can restore their potential of virtue and intellect, if they choose to follow the teachings of the Monarch; 3. this condition occurs when the human race, through a collective action, has reached the act of philosophy, living in a world ruled as a multitude. In defining such a harmonious project of the human wills (concordance in aims and purposes, which concerns all individuals ruled by the perfect philosopher/king), Dante’s treatise relies on the coeval Aristotelian sources. In particular, the author intertwines the fundamental Averroistic issues with the synthesis elaborated by Thomism thus creating an innovative theoretical frame that includes rational, ethical and theological aspects of human beings as political animals, intended by Nature (as a consequence of the will of Providence) to live together in perfect peace

The Early Stages of a Parliamentary Monarchy in Aragonese Sicily: Curia generalis and Rex Trinacriae during the Reign of Frederick III (1296–1321)
No full textThis article is intended to link the institutional processes completed in Sicily between the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries with important international political events in which Sicilians were involved during the first part of the reign of Frederick III (1296–1321). At the end of this long period of conflict, the Sicilians managed to end the War of the Vespers, which began in 1282, and to establish a hereditary ‘national’ monarchy (Status Siciliae), independent of the hegemonic aims of the papacy and of the Anjous and characterized by constitutional cooperation between crown and parliament. Frederick had taken the crown by the Sicilian representatives swearing loyalty to the fundamental laws (1296) and he was able to choose his successor, Peter of Aragon, to the throne, only after he too had taken the same oath (1321). The Peace of Caltabellotta (1302) occurred between these two events. This peace gave only a partial and very unstable recognition of the Sicilian intentions, but the 1312 treaty with Emperor Henry VII finally legitimized, by a higher civil authority, this first attempt to establish a ‘national’ and ‘constitutional’ Sicilian kingdo
Attualità della Tradizione. Dante politico in Augusto Del Noce
No full textIl volume presenta, attraverso numerosi scritti, soprattutto inediti, l'interpretazione data da Augusto Del Noce del pensiero politico di Dante. Per la prima volta, viene integralmente ricostruito l'interesse delnociano verso il poeta firoentino, lungo un percorso più che ventennale che, iniziato alla fine degli anni Sessanta, arriva agli ultimi mesi di vita del filosofo piemontese. Posizionando l'Alighieri al culmine di una linea di pensiero "teologico-politica" fondata su valori "tradizionali", Del Noce ne propone l' "attualità" nella società democratica. La lezione dantesca sull'autonomia del potere civile dallo spirituale può diventare, secondo questa originale lettura, il riferimento della comunità politica per uscire dalla crisi generata con l'annullamento dell'eredità culturale cristiana
