Titolo:
"La solidarietà islamica agli albori del ventesimo secolo: Abd-al Raḥman ‘Azzām e la circolazione di panislamismo e panarabismo"

The period between 1845 and 1950 is generally evaluated as a moment of global change. Specifically, the first two decades of Twentieth Century revealed the decay of imperialism and the spreading of a common sense of belonging throughout the colonies. In this sense, phenomena like the Libyan War, the Balkans War and the First World War were strictly interrelated, and showed the growth of the Islamic solidarity against Western colonialism. This awareness, exploiting instruments as the press and the telegraph, extended from East to West, involving economic and cultural networks, as well as individuals. The aim of this article is to analyse the Islamic solidarity, which bloomed during the Libyan War (1911-1912), in order to demonstrate how is has been declined in space and time. It focuses on the use of material instruments and on the involvement of political personalities: the figure of ‘Abd al Raḥman ‘Azzām is an example of solidarity’s outliving until the Seventies.
