Evidence
The main focus of P.C.I. activity by now was the struggle for trade-union autonomy. In October, the employers’ federation signed a pact with the fascist “corporations” (fake trade unions), in which the latter were given sole bargaining rights, and the commissioni interne were suppressed. — Antonio Gramsci, Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 203
