"A spectre is haunting Europe; the spectre of Communism."

Eurocommunism, also referred to as Democratic Communism or Neocommunism, is a revisionist ideology in the 1970s and 1980s within various Western European communist parties which said they had developed a theory and practice of social transformation more relevant for Western Europe.

History

The invasion of Czechoslovakia by the Warsaw Pact has disillusioned many Communist parties in the Western world. The result was the break from Soviet orthodoxy and greater commitment to liberal democracy in those parties. Eurocommunism was the most prominent in Italy, Spain, and France.

The ascendancy of Enrico Berlinguer during the 70s helped the Italian Communist Party (PCI) gain many more seats in the national and local elections. With those gains, he negotiated a Historic Compromise with Aldo Moro, a very popular Prime Minister in the Christian Democracy (DC.) According to Berlinguer, the fall of democracy in Chile necessitates the cooperation between the Marxists and the more moderate factions. With the support of DC, they would then pursue many social reforms and condemn many terrorist groups during the Years of Lead. The Compromise would continue until 1980.

Personality and Behaviour

Let's just say that he is a very nice guy but hates capitalists.
