Description:
The Italian Communist Party, lead by Enrico Berlinguer, manage to enter the official government after winning about a third of the national vote total in the general election. This moment is virtually the height of the Eurocommunist movement, which emphasizes a democratic model of socialism, as never again will a simultaneous anti-Soviet, anti-Capitalist European political party reach such a high percentage of the vote.
