The Real Report appeared under the pseudonym 'Censor' when Sanguinetti, a former member of the Situationist International, mailed his brilliant fake to 520 elite Italian industrialists, academics, journalists and politicians in 1975. Posing as a cultured Italian aristocrat and with a sweeping knowledge of history, classical literature, politics and military strategy, 'Censor' sounded like a conservative from another era, an heir to Dante and Machiavelli, counseling his executive peers in response to autonomous workers' strikes that were sweeping the country. Having been deported from France in 1971 and freshly released from jail on false weapons charges, Sanguinetti succeeded in causing a scandal while laying bare the secret machinations of the state and covert manipulation of terrorist groups by the intelligence services. Translated for the first time in English, by Len Bracken, with a translator's preface and appendix.

This review is from: The Real Report on the Last Chance to Save Capitalism in Italy (Paperback)
It really is brilliant! This book is a must-read, guaranteed to get the wheels turning - excellent to think about it in conjunction with Debord's "Comments."As a bonus, Len Bracken has included a useful timeline descriptively entitled "From the egg to the apples: the combined chronologies of the strategy of tension in Italy and of the Italian section of the Situationist International." -jean.
