"The Second World War wreaked unprecedented devastation throughout Europe, necessitating
monumental reconstruction efforts that burdened not only governments, but the lives
of ordinary citizens. War, Massacre, and Recovery in Central Italy, 1943-1948 examines
this transitional period in the province of Arezzo by detailing the daily experiences
of civilians through the traumas of war and the difficulties of recovery ; Studying
the aftermath of war in a new and insightful way, Victoria C. Belco shifts the perspective
from the national to the local level. With this localized focus, she provides valuable
insight into the ways in which civilians coped with an overwhelming range of problems
- from adjusting to Allied occupation and widespread displacement to rampant unemployment
and the restructuring of local administrations and institutions after fascism. Recreating
the post-war atmosphere of disorder, need, and political upheaval, Belco shows how
the competing community interests caused social fragmentations that impeded change,
while the unity of a shared past prevented civil war."--pub. desc
