Abstract
The paper considers both the features and the magnitude of the alleged cultural
turn of 1977 in Italy. The research focuses on the three main subjects that caught
Italian intellectuals’ attention during that period: 1) the relations between socialism
and democracy, and the related “crisis of Marxism”; 2) the role of intellectuals visà-
vis political institutions; 3) the repression of “dissent”. By analyzing the press
and reviewing the literature published in 1977, the article reconstructs the public
debates about the three topics.
