摘要

摘要在法西斯政权下，意大利年轻人通过练习成年后的战争游戏来自娱自乐。纸制士兵在以新成立的意大利东非帝国为背景的棋盘游戏中行进。为了揭示这些恶毒的教训是如何起作用的，本文考察了三种类型的玩具。它从纸兵的设计和部署开始：意大利的Alpinisti、厄立特里亚的Ascari和索马里的Dubat。接下来，《征服阿比西尼亚》棋盘游戏的剧本为军事征服提供了指南。最后，我研究了这些玩具的来源，揭示了支持法西斯政府项目的殖民宣传的金融结构。最终，玩具为殖民地的成年人暴力行为编写了剧本。

Paper Soldiers on the March: Colonial Toys for Imperial Play

Under the Fascist regime, young Italians amused themselves by practicing the war games of adulthood. Paper soldiers marched across board games set in the newly established empire of Italian East Africa. To reveal how these vicious lessons worked, this article examines three types of toys. It starts with the design and deployment of paper soldiers: Italian Alpinisti, Eritrean Ascari, and Somali Dubat. Next, a playbook for The Conquest of Abyssinia boardgame provides a guide to military conquest. Finally, I examine where these toys come from, revealing the financial structures that underpinned colonial propaganda for Fascist government projects. Ultimately, toys wrote scripts for adult violence in the colonies.
