L’eco del dissenso dell’Est Europa nei movimenti ecclesiali: un confronto a due voci

The present contribution aims to verify the approach to Eastern European dissent of two ecclesial movements, the Focolare Movement and Gioventù Studentesca/Communion and Liberation, which had a certain influence on Italian public opinion. Starting from the anal¬ysis of the journals produced by both movements between the 1960s and 1970s, the aim is to contribute to the identification of themes, times and modes of the Italian reception of dissent, bringing out unforeseen and, in some ways, dissimilar points of view.
