"No ai missili a Comiso, no ai missili in Europa!" A case study of transnational contacts between Comiso (Sicily, Italy), Greenham Common (England) and the Dutch peace movement

Master thesis | History (MA)

The European peace movement of the 1980s has by some been regarded as one large movement, while others see it as a collection of national movements with only the smallest connection between them. In this thesis, the transnational contacts between three movements have been studied, to determine if these contacts can be classified as transfer, failed transfer or "everyday transnationalism".
