Undoubtedly the Renaissance there was a serious institutional conflict between church and state, but insist too - how often did historiography - leads to a partial reading, which does not fully grasp the depth and complexity of the processes that lead to unity and makes us forget that motion Risorgimento "Catholic" that counts as members Pellico, Manzoni, Rosmini and Gioberti. Catholics have contributed essential to "make Italians" that is the basis of political unity. Without this common identity, political unity would not hold. With the abstention of Catholics from political life (non expedit), their commitment and their energies were directed to social to educational, charitable and welfare. Over the years, the state Liberal Catholics have worked hard in this area, so dense and with a strong local roots, entering a capital of experience, ideas and thought that after World War II has contributed significantly to the creation of a new society and different, basically inspired by the great values \u200b\u200bof solidarity, social and subsidiarity.

For many years the Church, through its people, has been active in the human soul as well as religious civil society. Catholics have been able to facilitate a transition from the fascist regime to the new Republican state that has seen convergence of political and cultural positions and formed the basis for hiring, for their part, the leadership of the country after World War II. Illuminating the words of Guido Gonella, DC at the first meeting of 1945, on the desire to 'build the new state' with the help of all the political forces. A style that reveals the depth of responsibility of Catholics to the country. The recurrence of the March 17 calls upon the Catholic world today calling on multiple responsibilities. First of a substantial nature: religion does not demonize the policy, but provides a concrete commitment. For the believer, therefore, be a good citizen and make their own contribution to the growth of civil society has a duty to 'religious'. The second task relates to pedagogy through the educational institutions - schools, parishes, associations and oratory - should give new impetus to the formation of new generations, love of country, the sense of citizenship and to spend for the common good. Also, due to a company which could see the attenuated sense of identity and of belonging, concern must be to rediscover the common roots of the reasons to stay together to strengthen today and tomorrow. The discussion involves several aspects. In the Italian context with multi-ethnic and "new citizens" bearers of different cultures should be a national identity strong. The phenomenon of location should be oriented profiles of authentic solidarity to strengthen national unity, avoiding the risk of disruptions. The unification process was the need to fit a full-fledged subject in itself within Europe, Italy is called today the great challenge of committed participation supranational Europe.
