About Luigi Sturzo

Luigi Sturzo was an Italian Catholic priest, writer and prominent politician. He was known in his lifetime as a former Christian socialist turned popularist, and is considered one of the fathers of the Christian democratic platform. He was also the founder of the Luigi Sturzo Institute in 1951. Sturzo was one of the founders of the Italian People's Party (PPI) in 1919 but was forced into exile in 1924 with the rise of Italian fascism. In exile in London and later New York City, he published over 400 articles strongly denouncing fascism. Sturzo's cause for canonization opened on 23 March 2002 and he is titled as a Servant of God.
