Giulio Andreotti, one of the most powerful politicians in Italy following the Second World War, has died. Andreotti headed the Italian government as Presidente del Consiglio (Prime Minister) seven times and acted as minister in many other governments throughout the post-war period.

Corriere della Sera, La Repubblica, and BBC all provide extensive coverage of Andreotti’s death and legacy.

NIU History students working on Italian history topics will want to consider Andreotti’s legacy.
