La défense, instrument de la politique étrangère italienne dans la période post-bipolaire - Paris : IIAP, janv./mars 1996

After the second world war, italian defence policy was restricted essentially to the defence of national territory with the exception of participation in the operations of the United Nations. During the 1980s Italy freed itself from the constraints imposed by the second world war and intervened in Lebanon. Since then further interventions have allowed the military to again experience. With the end of the big-polarisation of the world there is a movement towards what has been called the renationalisation of security and defence policies
