Abstract
In this chapter we sketch out a historical overview of de Sitter Relativity, focusing on the projective version developed by the Italian mathematicians L. Fantappiè and G. Arcidiacono in the early 1950s. In addition, we analyze tendencies and problems connected to de Sitter Relativity in contemporary physics.
