Jan. 3, 1925: Dictator Declared: How Mussolini Took Over Italy
On January 3, 1925, Benito Mussolini declared his assumption of dictatorial powers over Italy, a turning point that reshaped the nation and set it on a path toward totalitarianism.
In this episode, we explore Mussolini’s transformation from a fiery socialist journalist to Il Duce, leader of the Fascist Party. We examine the societal chaos of post-World War I Italy, the rise of Fascism, and Mussolini’s infamous March on Rome. The episode delves into the bold speech that dismantled parliamentary democracy and established a regime that initially inspired many but ultimately led to devastation during World War II.
Join us as we unpack the lessons of Mussolini’s rise, the allure and danger of authoritarian promises, and the enduring warning this moment in history offers for defending democratic values.
