About this book
This book investigates Italian foreign cultural policy from the 1947 Constitution to the present. It reveals the requirement to promote ‘high culture’ and the need to deal with complex issues relating to emigration. The Australian context is used to show how the dichotomy of migrants versus culture-promotion abroad has gradually been addressed.
