Transnational perspectives on Christian Democrats in exile

This book focuses on
the political exile of Catholic Christian Democrats during the global twentieth
century, from the end of the First World War to the end of the Cold War. Transcending
the common national approach, the present volume puts transnational
perspectives at center stage and in doing so aspires to be a genuinely global
and longitudinal study. Political Exile in the Global Twentieth Century includes
chapters on continental European exile in the United Kingdom and North America
through 1945; on Spanish exile following the Civil War (1936–39), throughout
the Franco dictatorship; on East-Central European exile from the defeat of Nazi
Germany and the establishment of Communist rule (1944–48) through the end of
the Cold War; and Latin American exile following the 1973 Chilean coup.

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