Focusing on Rome, it details how the PCI overcame rival communist factions, particularly during the German occupation from 1943-44, when dissident communists formed the Communist Movement of Italy (MCd'I). This movement played a crucial role in mobilizing social resistance and shaping the political landscape in the capital.
