Nineteenth century Italian debate about colonialism - as well as national representationof colonial phenomenon - was not a homogeneous one. According to Italian scholars (historians,jurists, economists, geographers) of the period 1860-1880 a "modern" concept ofcolonialism must necessarily refuse the use of violence and, in particular, recourse to conquestas a mean of territorial expansion. This representation of colonialism - that found astrong scientific support in the mid-Nineteenth century Italian theory of International Lawand in particular in the "principle of nationality" elaborated by Pasquale Stanislao Mancini- terminated in the decade 1880-1890. Starting from the Berlin West Africa Conference(1884-1885) Italian jurists - especially International lawyers - considered colonialism asthe principal vehicle of world civilization and this alone was sufficient to legitimize eventhe most violent means of territorial acquisition.
