Abstract
The essay, co-authored with Silvio Riondato and Sergio Dini, is a unique historical and critical legal analysis of the practice of the decimation, that is, the shooting of 10 soldiers on 100 when the whole brigade was responsible for military criminal offenses or when the offenders, members of the brigade, could not be identified, during WWI in Italian Military Criminal Law.
