Description

Explore Italy's pivotal role in the Suez Canal's construction and development from the mid-nineteenth century through the Cold War era. This edited collection examines how Italy's unification coincided with the Canal's conception in the 1850s and its opening to navigation in 1869, revealing the country's technical, diplomatic, and financial contributions to this vital waterway. Drawing from unpublished public and private archival sources, the book traces the intertwined histories of Italy and the Canal across peace and war, offering fresh insights into Mediterranean geopolitics and Italy's emergence as a global power. Essential reading for historians, scholars of European history, and anyone interested in understanding Italy's strategic significance in international affairs during this transformative period.

Key Features

Comprehensive examination of Italy's technical contributions to Suez Canal construction and subsequent infrastructure development over 150 years.

Explores Italy's diplomatic negotiations and financial involvement in the Canal from the mid-nineteenth century through Cold War tensions.

Draws extensively from unpublished archival sources, offering original research not found in standard historical accounts of Mediterranean geopolitics.

Connects Italy's path to unification in the 1850s with its first major engagement in nineteenth-century globalisation through Canal participation.

Published by Palgrave Macmillan, an academic publisher specialising in rigorous historical research and scholarly analysis.
