What was Italy's "economic miracle"?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. Rapid growth in industry and incomes from the 1950s to the early 1960s
- Step 1: After the war, Italy industrialised quickly, especially in the north. Step 2. Cars, appliances and construction boomed, and many people moved from the south to northern cities. Answer: rapid growth from the 1950s to the early 1960s. Why not the others: the other periods are described with the wrong decade or the wrong sign of growth.
