Abstract

ABSTRACT This article contributes to the growing body of literature on colonial intelligence by examining the Palestine Mandate. Throughout the 1930s, Fascist Italy developed a network of local agents, informants, and intermediaries that reported on both local conditions and the British imperial administration. Yet the region was not a site of unrestrained imperial competition. Instead, I argue that the British and Italians transformed Palestine into a shared imperial space. Through colonial intelligence networks, Fascist Italy built an essential imperial infrastructure in the Palestine Mandate that overlapped with the British administration and diverted a certain degree of authority to Rome.
