The Shadow Over the Mattarella Case

Mafia, Terrorism and Hidden Powers.
In collaboration with the University of Messina

Miguel Gotor’s new book, L’omicidio di Piersanti Mattarella (Einaudi), reconstructs one of the most obscure crimes in the history of the Italian Republic, placing it within a network of connections between the Mafia, far-right terrorism, and hidden powers. Through documents and testimonies, the essay examines the period 1979–1980, highlighting the links between Palermo, Ustica, and Bologna, and offering a new reading of recent Italian history.

The event is introduced by Luigi Chiara, President of the Center for Mafia Studies at the University of Messina.
