Nigro Jr., Louis John: The New Diplomacy in Italy

American Propaganda and U.S.-Italian Relations, 1917-1919. This book explores in detail one of the most important but least understood elements of those diplomatic relations, the American propaganda effort in Italy from 1917-1919. It will also attempt to show that American Propaganda helped to make Woodrow Wilson and his political program a major influence in Italian politics during the two years ending in April 1919. It will offer as well an assessment of the impact that the Wilsonian phenomenon had on U.S.-Italian relations, especially at the Paris Peace Conference. This book sheds new light on U.S.-Italian relations during World War I by examining in detail one of the most important elements of that diplomatic relationship - the American propaganda campaign in Italy from 1917 to 1919. In revealing how the first U.S. foreign propaganda agency, the Committee on Public Information, helped to implement Woodrow Wilson's version of the «New Diplomacy» in Italy, this study demonstrates that American propaganda made the Wilsonian political program a major factor in Italian politics during that critical period and analyzes the significant impact that the Wilsonian phenomenon had on U.S.-Italian relations, especially at the Paris Peace Conference.
