Political Exile in the Global Twentieth Century : Catholic Christian Democrats in Europe and the Americas PDF

Transnational perspectives on Christian Democrats in exile

This book focuses onthe political exile of Catholic Christian Democrats during the global twentiethcentury, from the end of the First World War to the end of the Cold War. Transcendingthe common national approach, the present volume puts transnationalperspectives at center stage and in doing so aspires to be a genuinely globaland longitudinal study. Political Exile in the Global Twentieth Century includeschapters on continental European exile in the United Kingdom and North Americathrough 1945; on Spanish exile following the Civil War (1936–39), throughoutthe Franco dictatorship; on East-Central European exile from the defeat of NaziGermany and the establishment of Communist rule (1944–48) through the end ofthe Cold War; and Latin American exile following the 1973 Chilean coup.

Encompassing Europe(both East and West), Latin America, and the United States, Political Exilein the Global Twentieth Century places the diasporas of twentieth-century ChristianDemocracy within broader, global debates on political exile and migration.
