Claudio Mutti
Claudio Mutti (born May 24, 1946) is an Italian neofascist.[1] In the 1960s, he was a member of Young Italy (the juvenile wing of the Italian Social Movement, which expelled him for extremism) and the euronationalist Jeune Europe movement.[2] In 1980 he was arrested in connection with the Bologna massacre, alongside fellow neofascist ideologues Paolo Signorelli and Aldo Semerari.[3][4] He converted to Islam in the 1980s, having become influenced by Julius Evola, Rene Guenon, and Muammar Gaddafi.[5] He met with Aleksandr Dugin in 1990.[6] Mark Sedgwick describes him as an important figure in late twentieth-century Traditionalist networks in Europe.[5]
