A brief outline of the main concepts underlying a paleomagnetic study is provided in the first part of this paper. We also discuss the criteiia for the assessment of the reliability of paleomagnetic data. Finally,the data collected over the past 25 years in peninsular and insular Italy are synthetically reviewed, discussing the main implications for the geodynamic evolution of the Tyrrhenian 〈 span style="font: 6.0px Helvetica;" 〉 - 〈 /span 〉 Apennines foreland system. 〈 /p 〉 〈 /p 〉 〈 br / 〉
