| Summary: | The experience of the municipalization of social housing in Giolittian Italy makes it possible to focus the extremes of a parable that led to the recognition of housing problems as a matter of collective interest. The genesis of social housing is therefore dispersed in the complex of initiatives that it has been possible to reconstruct in support of an extraordinary corpus of archival documents, investigated in the aegis of the legislative provisions in the matter of public housing and municipalization launched during 1903, real term watershed for the developments of this story. On the background of the combined result arising from the two regulations, in fact, the red thread of the entire narrative unfolds, a journey that moves through fragments of local experiences, micro-historical reflections aggregated in an articulated mosaic based on the adhesive of the municipalization, showing the prelude of a rupture phase capable of liberating the beginnings of today's welfare state.
