The 1919-20 revolutionary wave was experienced as one transnational event

Evidence

Indeed, during the red years of 1919– 1920, collective imagination was fi red by events happening elsewhere in Europe. Th e writings of the reformistsocialist Pietro Nenni reveal the interconnected and transnational nature of the crisis: “Th e fall of the Hohenzollern in Germany, the dissolution of the Habsburg empire and the fl ight of its last emperor, the Spartacist movements in Berlin, the Bolshevik revolution in Hungary, the Soviet in Bavaria … fi red the imaginations and inspired the hope that the old world was on the point of crumbling and that humanity was on the verge of a new era of a new social order” (Nenni 1946, 6). — Clara E. Mattei, The Capital Order, 340
