Student Politics in Italy: From Utopia to Terrorism.
Statera, Gianni
Higher Education, v8 n6 p657-67 Nov 1979
The Italian student movement's move from libertarian utopia to political terrorism is analyzed in terms of the social and economic crisis in Italy. This is characterized by the collapse of representative student institutions, the rise of dogmatism and sectarianism, and the glorification of violence as a means of social change. (JMF)
