Originally published in 1914 as Che cosa è il nazionalismo e cosa vogliono i nazionalisti, it discusses what nationalism is and isn?t and why, Italian political parties of the period, why nationalists are not liberals, nor conservatives, nor radicals, nor republicans, nor clericalists, nor socialists. It discusses objections to and criticisms of nationalism, and finally to whom nationalism appeals.Alfredo Rocco (AD 1875 - 1935) was an Italian jurist and politician.
