This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 35.171.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:20, 2 December 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Odoardo Dino Alfieri''' (8 June 1886 – 2 January 1966) was an Italian fascist politician and diplomat. He served as [[Benito Mussolini]]'s press and propaganda minister and ambassador to [[Berlin]].

==Early life and education==
[[File:Votazione odg Grandi.jpg|thumb|250px|Dino Alfieri supported the ''Ordine del Giorno'' Grandi that led to the fall from power of the Fascist government]]
Alfieri was born in [[Bologna]] in 1886 to Antonio and Maria Bedogni.<ref name=":1">((Cite news|date=1966-01-06|title=DINO ALFIERI DIES; AIDE OF MUSSOLINI; Fascist Lawyer, 79, Headed Milan Textile Group (Published 1966)|language=en-US|work=The New York Times|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1966/01/06/archives/dino-alfieri-dies-aide-of-mussolini-fascist-lawyer-79-headed-milan.html|access-date=2021-01-22|issn=0362-4331))</ref> Growing up, he was politically active, joining the Nationalist Association in 1910.<ref name=":0" />

He completed his law degree at the University of Genoa in 1915 and shortly thereafter volunteer for military service. Alfieri was quickly promoted to lieutenant earning a bronze medal in 1916 and silver medal for military valor in 1917.  He was discharged in July 1919.<ref name=":0">((Cite web|title=ALFIERI, Edoardo in "Dizionario Biografico"|url=https://www.treccani.it/enciclopedia/edoardo-alfieri_(Dizionario-Biografico)|access-date=2021-01-22|website=www.treccani.it|language=it-IT))</ref>

In 1911, he finished law studies and soon after joined the nationalist group formed by [[Enrico Corradini]]. A volunteer in [[World War I]], he was critical of the merger between Corradini's group and [[Benito Mussolini]]'s [[National Fascist Party]] (PNF). Nonetheless, he was elected to the [[Italian Chamber of Deputies]] on the PNF list in 1924.

== Political career ==
Under Mussolini's government, Alfieri was assigned several tasks: between 1929 and 1934, he was co-director of the [[Exhibition of the Fascist Revolution]], deputy secretary of the ''[[Corporatism|Corporazioni]]'', and deputy secretary for Press and Propaganda from 1935, assuming the duties of Minister [[Galeazzo Ciano]] during the latter's mission in the [[Second Italo-Abyssinian War]]. When Ciano moved on to become [[Italian Minister of Foreign Affairs|Minister of Foreign Affairs]], Dino Alfieri found himself appointed Minister of People's Culture in 1937, and declared himself to the [[Antisemitism|Antisemitical]] [[racial segregation]] laws passed in 1938.

He was Italy's envoy to the [[Holy See]] starting 7 November 1939, and five months later to [[Nazi Germany]], where he often met [[Adolf Hitler]]. While there, he was constantly helping out Italian workers and consulate staff. As the war progressed and Italy needed help, he attempted to solicit material aid from Germany, but despite assurances, little came of it. When the war began to deteriorate for the Axis, he wrote communiques and expressed verbally to Mussolini that the Germans saw Italy simply as a [[buffer state]] from the encroaching allies and urged the Duce to seek peace with the Allies but simultaneously assured the Germans that Italy was not betraying them.

In July 1943, Alfieri was called to Rome by members of the Grand Council in order to participate in a meeting. It is unclear as to whether he truly realized what was being proposed at the meeting. A member of the [[Grand Council of Fascism]], Alfieri voted in favor of [[Dino Grandi]]'s [[25 Luglio|coup d'état in July 1943]], that led to Mussolini's arrest and fall from power of the Italian Fascist government.<ref>((Cite news|date=1966-01-07|title=Mort de Dino Alfieri, qui fut ambassadeur de Mussolini auprès d'Hitler|language=fr|work=Le Monde.fr|url=https://www.lemonde.fr/archives/article/1966/01/07/mort-de-dino-alfieri-qui-fut-ambassadeur-de-mussolini-aupres-d-rsquo-hitler_2702283_1819218.html|access-date=2021-01-22))</ref>

When the German [[Wehrmacht]] occupied Italy (see [[Operation Achse]]), Alfieri fled to [[Switzerland]].

In January 1944, he was [[death sentence|sentenced to death]] ''[[trial in absentia|in absentia]]'' by a [[kangaroo court]] during the [[Verona trial]]. The Swiss government did not give him political asylum but tolerated his attendance in [[Switzerland]].

On 12 November 1946, an Italian court stated his innocence. On 6 February 1947, an inquiry of the [[Italian Foreign Ministry]] ended. Then, he was officially pensioned off.

== Postwar ==
In 1947, Alfieri returned to Italy and a year later published his memoirs as ''Due dittatori di fronte'' ("[Two] Dictators Face to Face"). The book reveals little about Italian and German relations during the war beyond personal recollections.<ref>((Cite news|date=2011-10-08|title=Due Dittatori Di Fronte|journal=Foreign Affairs|language=en-US|url=https://www.foreignaffairs.com/reviews/capsule-review/1950-04-01/due-dittatori-di-fronte|access-date=2021-01-22|issn=0015-7120))</ref>

== Death ==
Alfieri died in a Milan hospital on 2 January 1966. Details about his death were withheld for three days. At the time of his death, Alfieri was president of Mitam,<ref>((Cite web|last=Limited|first=Alamy|title=Stock Photo - Italian politician minister Mario Martinelli at the opening of MITAM Fair with (from left) Confindustria President Furio Cicogna, MITAM President Alfieri, the Mayor of Milan|url=https://www.alamy.com/italian-politician-minister-mario-martinelli-at-the-opening-of-mitam-fair-with-from-left-confindustria-president-furio-cicogna-mitam-president-alfieri-the-mayor-of-milan-cassinis-and-the-president-of-the-fair-coggi-milan-italy-1961-image337368060.html|access-date=2021-01-22|website=Alamy|language=en))</ref> a textile and clothing manufacturers association.<ref name=":1" />
