Abstract
Professor Nilsson begins with a discussion of the Italian Communist Party (PCI), its "Eurocommunism," and the contradiction in its strategic goals. He then discusses the program (the EUR accords) prepared by a three-union federation of organized Italian labor, its internal contradictions as well as its agreement on tripartite negotiations among government, unions, and management, an agreement which raise the specter of neocorporatism. Nilsson argues that the deadlock between union members and leaders combined with the immobilism of the PCI make the proclaimed goal of Italian social transformation impossible. The resolution of the present "crisis of democracy" by neocorporatist devices, he concludes, will heighten rather than diminish tension.
