The theme of the evenings will be the <strong>social-nationalism<\/strong>, that is, that political tendency to associate the exaltation of the nation with the social question. This strategy has historically belonged to Nazi - fascisms and is renewed in the weave of the discourse of today's populisms. An attempt will be made to show that the cyclical reoccurrence of social-nationalism is a symptom of the crisis of democracy, then as now. Through reflection on the past, with a focus on the early decades of the 20th century, an attempt will be made to define a historical-political category for understanding the present. The seminar will address the issues of national identity, democratic participation, war as an instrument of political propaganda, and populism in its various declinations. Numerous and rich will be the starting points from which to build together a path of education and consciousness-raising.\u2018.<\/p>\n<p>In the first meeting the <strong>prof.<\/strong> <strong>John Zanelli<\/strong> will introduce the seminar series by defining the category of social-nationalism from its historical origins and its appeal to the identity of people and nation, and Prof. Vassallo will highlight the connection between the rise of social-nationalism and the crisis of participation in democracies then and now.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PRESS RELEASE (01\/16\/2017) On Wednesday, Jan. 18, Loano will kick off the initiative \u201cBrown Zones - Social-Nationalisms and the Crisis of Democracy,\u201d organized by A.N.P.I of Loano in collaboration with the Star of the...<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4124,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-8552","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.visitloano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8552","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.visitloano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.visitloano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.visitloano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.visitloano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8552"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.visitloano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8552\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.visitloano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4124"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.visitloano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8552"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.visitloano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8552"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.visitloano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8552"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
