    • Abstract:
      The article reports on the case of Italians Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, who were accused of killing a paymaster and a guard of a shoe factory in South Braintree, Massachusetts on April 15, 1920. When the two Italians were found guilty of murder in the first degree, international protests were conducted in various embassies. In early August 1926, protesters in Paris, France criticized the impending execution of the two Italians, claiming that they are just victims of anti-radicalism.
