Bio: Parodi was a socialist worker from 1909 and an organizer of Turin factory councils, closely associated with Gramsci and L’Ordine Nuovo despite his Bordighian orientation. The March 1920 Fiat Centro report identifies him as a fitter and member of the council executive. He led factory occupations in 1920 and participated in founding the Communist Party of Italy in 1921. Fascist persecution forced him into exile; after returning clandestinely he was arrested in 1927.
