This book presents the history of the Jews living in Fascist Italy. Starting with a survey of the political and social situation of Jews, it goes on to describe their progressive disenfranchisement, from the deprivation of rights to the deprivation of life – the latter of which occurred especially in collaboration between the Italian Social Republic (Salò) and German authorities, who became a de facto occupying power as of 1943.
