Abstract
The little fatherlands of Italian emigrant women examines the relationship between Italian emigrant women and Italy, with particular emphasis on the period from the first anniversary of Italian unification in 1911 to the fascist era. The essay shows how the shortcomings in Italian state policies towards emigrant women, and the possibility of full citizenship for women and the policies for their integration in many countries of emigration, led to the construction of a particular form of multiple identity that linked an Italian identity, that embraced the countless local and regional cultures, to a full citizenship in the country of immigration.
