Università Roma Tre

Renato Moro was educated at the University of Rome “La Sapienza”, where he was pupil of Renzo De Felice. Since 1995 he is Full Professor of Contemporary (Late Modern) History at Roma Tre University. He taught courses also at the Camerino University. At Roma Tre, Prof. Moro has been Vice-Rector for Research from 2004 to 2008 and is now Vice-Chancellor for Education in Foreign Languages and Vice-Director of the Ph.D. in Political Studies. Since 2005 he is co-editor of the quarterly journal Mondo contemporaneo. Rivista di storia.  His studies concern the relationship between politics and religion in 20th Century history: the political culture of the intellectual Catholic élites in the 1930s and 1940s and the process of formation of the new ruling class in Italy; the relationship between Italian (and international) Catholicism and Fascism; the impact of modernization and mass politics on religion and its politicization (nationalism, political religions, anti-Semitism, anti-Protestantism). In recent years he has added a new field of research: the history of peace and anti-nuclear movements. He’s now completing a book about the young Aldo Moro and a broad study about peace ideas, movements and institutions in historical perspective. Coordinator since 2008 of the Working Group for the historical research about Aldo Moro of the Accademia di studi storici Aldo Moro, Rome, prof. Moro also takes part in the Scientific Board of the journals Hispania and Historia y Política, the Scientific Committee and the Steering Board of CIVITAS-Fard, the Advisory Board of the Centre for Peace History at the History Department of the University of Sheffield, the group of historians appointed by the Italian Senate to edit Prime Minister Amintore Fanfani’s Diaries, the Scientific Board for the Italian Museum of the Shoah, the Scientific Board of the Fondazione FUCI and Edizioni Studium (Rome).
