Abstract
The crisis that struck Iniziativa Democratica in 1959 was one of the most delicate and complex periods in Christian Democratic history. This article analyses Aldo Moro's political action in the first months of his term as DC secretary, with particular reference to the attempt to repair the breach between the two sections of the majority faction that followed Amintore Fanfani's resignation and, at the same time, to ensure the unity of the entire party.
