| Research Abstract |
Christian Democratic parties were the most powerful political actors in Western Europe since the end of the World WarII, but after 1990s most of them lost power and went to opposition. After the years of opposition, some parties weresuccessful in reforming the party and returned to power. In this research we tried to explore the recent dynamism of Christian Democratic politics by distinguishing the factors contributing to the renewal of Christian Democratic parties. We hope that this research would shed light on the ongoing process of restructuring of conservative politics in WesternEurope.
