More about the book

The book explores the religious trends over two millennia that contributed to the establishment of the European Union, highlighting Pope Pius XII's pivotal Christmas speech in 1944. After rescuing a hundred thousand Jews, the Pope's address laid the groundwork for the EU and initiated changes in Vatican policy, leading to the formation of Christian democratic parties. These parties, alongside reconciled socialist factions, played crucial roles in creating a supranational organization that has fostered decades of economic growth and peace in Europe.
