This work examines the rise of new parties in Northern Italy claiming self-government upon the basis of a national and cultural distinctive North. By all accounts "peripheral" nationalism is an old and political conflict, but it is also, as this book intends to show, a political breakthrough, a product of contemporary trends. In short this book investigates the political revolt of the Italian North. This study addresses the debates on the direction and scope of political change in European politics. It explains why and how the symbolic and political unity of an Italian North was constructed by Lega Nord and analyzes the rise of Lega Nord.
