STRUGGLE AROUND THE ITALIAN QUESTION IN THE ROMAN REPUBLIC IN 125-124 BC

https://doi.org/ 10.18384/2310-676X-2018-2-51-60

Abstract

The article examines the crisis in the Roman-Italian relations in the second half of the 20s of the II century BC. Particular attention is paid to the political struggle between the Senate and the Gracchans around the law of Fulvius Flaccus in 125 BC, as well as to the revolt of the Latin colony Fregellae and the foundation of its place Fabreteria Nova - the colony of Roman law. Fulvius Flaccus tried to resolve the crisis in the Roman-Italic relations by peaceful means, attempting to satisfy the interests of all sections of the Italian society, but failed. That was the reason for the Fregellae revolt and predetermined the further relevance of the Italic issue in Roman politics.
