Description
Summary:In 2006, Pope Benedict XVI made available to scholars documents from the Vatican Secret Archives for the period of Pius XI's pontificate (1922–1939). Among the most contentious issues for Italian historians was the Vatican's position and role regarding the racial legislation introduced by Mussolini during the fall of 1938. Two important books on this subject, based upon the new documentation, have been published in the past three years: Giovanni Sale, Le Leggi razziali in Italia e il vaticano; and Valerio De Cesaris, Vaticano, fascismo e questione razziale.
