Communion and Liberation (CL) is widely known in Italy as a very important Catholic movement whose political power has significantly increased in the last fifteen years. It has a strong identity, which combines both traditionalism and modernity, and has managed to expand both its adherents and its presence in the social, economic, and political realms. It is thus an example of a successful religious movement in the contemporary political landscape. This paper focuses on the relationships between CL and Italian politics in the Second Republic (from 1993 to the present), by analyzing CL’s representation of its political role and the political opportunity structure that enabled its success.

Abstract (eng): | Communion and Liberation (CL) is widely known in Italy as a very important Catholic movement whose political power has significantly increased in the last fifteen years. It has a strong identity, which combines both traditionalism and modernity, and has managed to expand both its adherents and its presence in the social, economic, and political realms. It is thus an example of a successful religious movement in the contemporary political landscape. This paper focuses on the relationships between CL and Italian politics in the Second Republic (from 1993 to the present), by analyzing CL’s representation of its political role and the political opportunity structure that enabled its success. |
Abstract (fre): | Le mouvement Communion et Libération (CL) est largement reconnu en Italie comme un important mouvement catholique dont le pouvoir politique n’a cessé de croître significativement au cours des 15 dernières années. Caractérisé par une forte identité qui réunit tradition et modernité, le CL est parvenu à accroître le nombre de ses adhérents et sa présence au niveau social, économique et politique. Donc, il s’agit d’un exemple réussi de mouvement religieux dans le scénario politique contemporain. Cet article se penche sur la relation entre le CL et le contexte politique italien durant la période de la Seconde République (de 1993 à nos jours), à travers l’analyse, d’une part, de l’image que le CL donne de son propre rôle politique et, d’autre, de la structure d’occasions politiques qui ont rendu son succès possible. |
