The essay deals with a very peculiar aspect of fascist colonial policy: the foundation of groups of native youth such as "The Arab Youth of the Lictor" in Libya, and the native youths, one for each single region of the Italian East Africa. In Libya Balbo also founded a fascist party for Arabs called "The Muslim Association of the Lictor". The fascist case is the only one concerning a colonial power in such political activities with the natives. This fact is only apparently contraddictory with fascist colonial racism, because in fact it consists in the extension of the totalitarian and subordinated mobilization to part of the native population.

Abstract
The essay deals with a very peculiar aspect of fascist colonial policy: the foundation of groups of native youth such as "The Arab Youth of the Lictor" in Libya, and the native youths, one for each single region of the Italian East Africa. In Libya Balbo also founded a fascist party for Arabs called "The Muslim Association of the Lictor". The fascist case is the only one concerning a colonial power in such political activities with the natives. This fact is only apparently contraddictory with fascist colonial racism, because in fact it consists in the extension of the totalitarian and subordinated mobilization to part of the native population.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
