Il Borghese is a monthly cultural and political magazine with a right-wing stance published in Rome, Italy.

History and profile[]

Il Borghese was established by Leo Longanesi in 1950.[1][2] He founded other magazines such as L’Italiano and Omnibus.[1] Il Borghese was named after the conservative Borghese family.[3] It is published weekly and has a right-wing and conservative stance.[2][3]

Leo Longanesi and Indro Montanelli were the early co-editors of Il Borghese.[4] The former held the post until his death in 1957.[5] The other early contributors include Giovanni Ansaldo, Giuseppe Prezzolini, Giovanni Spadolini, Mario Tedeschi, Alberto Savinio, Ennio Flaiano, Colette Rosselli, Irene Brin, Goffredo Parise and Mario Missiroli.[6]

In the 1950s the magazine was close to Christian Democracy Party.[7] However, its support ended when Longanesi argued that the party was too weak to counter the "communist threat".[7] Il Borghese was closed down in 2001.[8] It was relaunched in Rome in December 2012.[8]
