Far-right social centres

Far-right social centres are community spaces inspired by neo-fascist and Third Position ideas. The most famous is the Italian movement CasaPound.

Italy

First far-right social centres were founded in Italy in 1980s.[1] In 1990 members of Fronte della Gioventù of the Italian Social Movement squatted a building in Rome and founded a social centre called Il Bartolo.[2][3] In 1998 Italian activists squatted a building in Rome and created a social centre called PortAperta. They organized some concerts in the building.

In 2002 neo-fascists squatted a building in and created social centre called CasaMontag.[4] On 20 September 2002 Italian nationalists squatted a building in Rome and created the Foro 753 social centre.[5]

On 26 December 2003 Italian neo-fascists squatted a building in Esquiline Hill and founded the CasaPound social centre.[6] In June 2008 CasaPound therefore constituted an "association of social promotion" and assumed the current name CasaPound Italy. Currently the movement CPI has a lot of social centres in Italy. Some of them are Circolo Futurista Casalbertone in Rome[7] and Casa d'Italia in Colleverde. Social centre Area 19 was evicted in 2015.
