Abstract

[This chapter historicises the early years of Nuovo Paese (New Country), the newspaper launched by the Italian Federation of Migrant Workers and their Families (FILEF) in Melbourne in 1974. Before becoming a monthly (1984) and adopting a magazine layout (1986), Nuovo Paese lived one of its most politically charged and controversial phases. For the migrant historian, this early period represents a rich site for exploring migrant activism. By drawing on transnationalism, transculturalism and oral history, this study argues that Nuovo Paese was shaped as much by local issues and organisational dynamics as wider contexts and globalising forces. Nuovo Paese represents a stimulating case study for examining the history of migrant-run print ventures and the politicised environment within and around them.]
