Christian Democrat InternationalismIts action in Europe and worldwide from post-World War II until the ‘90s
Introduction
Istituto Luigi Sturzo and Konrad Adenauer Stiftung, with the contribution of Centre for European Studies are promoting an international research project aimed at reconstructing the history and documentation of the Christian Democrat Internationalism, in the occasion of its 50th anniversary.
The project makes particular reference to the European Christian Democrat parties that constituted EPP. Researches will be conducted in Italy and Europe in private and parties archives and documents, with focus on personalities and organizations that held a central role in the international activities. Further researches will be conducted on relationships between Europe and Latin America organizations (UEDC, ODCA, UMDC, CDI) and on African area. The aim of the project is to promote a reflection both on past and present of Europe in order to open an international debate on the future challenges that Christian-inspired parties will have to address and the contribution that they can bring.
