This article sketches ethnic revival movements in Friuli, a small region in the northeastern corner of Italy, bordering with Austria and Yugoslavia. Historical and structural condi tions are reviewed, and the political and cultural features of the movement are discussed. The levels of mobilization and tensions are rather low (no violence has ever been involved), so the chances for the realization of the movement's stated goals seem dim.
