==Legacy== Mazzini's socio-political thought has been referred to as '''Mazzinianism''' and his worldview as the '''Mazzinian conception''', terms that were later used by Mussolini and [[Italian fascists]], such as [[Giovanni Gentile]], to describe their political ideology and spiritual conception of life.<ref name="E.
