Abstract

The Vatican and Democracy
Vayo, Del | July 12, 1947 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the power of the Vatican and democracy in Rome. The anti-communism revolution and ideological struggle in Italy is the most deeply anchored. Any aggravation of relations between Moscow and Washington D.C. has an immediate effect on Italy's internal politics, and at this moment, should it come to a test of strength, the communists are the masters of the street. The Vatican hopes that postponement of the elections until next spring will result in a central-rightist coalition so stabilized as to keep the communists forever out of the government. But, according to the author, it is a false hope.
