A meeting to explore the relationships between Italy and Africa, retracing the history of colonialism and the political and social transformations of the postcolonial era.

On Tuesday, November 24, at 5.00 pm, the Sala della Gloria at Via Trieste 17 in Brescia will host the presentation of the volume Italy and Africa. Strategies and Visions of the Postcolonial Era (1945-1989) by Paolo Borruso.

The event offers a reflection on the relationship between Italy and the African continent in the post-World War II period, amidst colonial legacies, political strategies, and new international perspectives. An opportunity to reread the past and reflect on its connections with the present.
