The article analyses Luca Baldissara’s book “Italia 1943. La guerra continua” (2023) from the perspective of recent scholarship on Italy’s participation in the Second World War and, more specifically, studies on the origins of the anti-fascist Resistance. It highlights three key points: the relationship between the war, the Fascist regime, and the country; the framing of the year 1943 as a complex unitary historiographical issue, rather than a set of separated events; and the interpretation of the Resistance of Italian men and women as a plural phenomenon, extending beyond political opposition and partisan warfare. This comprehensive approach appears appropriate so that the book, a synthesis of past historiography, can serve as an essential resource for future research.
