Welcome to the Web site of Italian Politics Specialist Group of the UK Political Studies Association

The Group was founded in 2001 to promote the study of Italian politics in the United Kingdom. All who are interested in the government, politics, foreign relations or recent political history of Italy are invited to join the Group. Membership enquiries should be sent to Mark Donovan.

It is hoped that the site will act as a research and teaching resource. In time, we will add information that can be interrogated on-line and a discussion forum for the exchange of ideas and opinions. If you know of sites that have not been listed here, or information you would like to make available, please email Chris Hanretty.
