Abstract

The objective of this research has been the study of the history of the Christian Democracy in the years of the crisis of the system "politico-partitico" during the first Republic. Particularly, through the history and the evolution of the Christian Democracy beNleen the end of the eighties and the beginning of the Ninety, the steps of progressive wear of that peculiar institutional.model are that was translated in the centrality of the in republican Italy "form party". The attention has been focused on failure attempt of the class political democrat-Christian to realize necessary change to infringe the diaphragm that, at least beginning from the seventies, it had prevented or reorganized the abilities of interpretation of the Italian society. The Christian Democracy, i1) the first republican "quarantennio", had been the party of relative majority and the principal party of government: the disappearance of this function contemporaneously coincide with the collapse of the political system of the same first republic. TIlls consideration, assumed for true, i! moves the fulcrum of the attention on a particular aspect of the history and thc epilogue of the Christian Democratic. In general, in their meet a series of runs that, in the two years in consideration, they was accomplished, deternilning an explosive and anymore controllable mi.x from the "dirigenza" of the party, neither enclose into articulate some tides. .At the base of the evelTthing, obviously, the are the consequences by fall of the Wall in Berlin, the dissolution of the popular democracies and dissolving of the communist block, that not only they change and not so much the perspective of the Christian Democratic party, hO\...- much above all its same reason to be and to exist - with reference to the:: declir)ation that these had assumed in the republican "quarantennio" - and their positioning to the center of the political-institutional system, over that of the line up "partitico". This overvie\v of the situation (gcneral interpretative key) it is accented to the fund of the to decline him in uncontrolled and unexpected way - in the times, in the ways, in the consequences - of a series of different factors of nature and order, that it assume inferior characteristics for the political, organizational and electoral fabric of the Dc. From the study and from the analysis of the intellectual production of the managing class Christian Democratic, it has emerged, indeed, the need to redefine "the ideal and political run" and "the political unity of the Catholics in the scenery communist post", AS the "they-myths of the ideologies and the horizon of the values", to the light of the "failure of the conimunism" and of the "end of a political cycle" characterized by a "vote Catholic" and from her "Christian Democratic centrality"...
