520 Following World War II, the Catholic Church in Europe
faced the challenge of establishing political influence
with newly emerging democratic governments. The Church
became, as Carolyn Warner pointedly argues, an interest
group like any other, seeking to attain and solidify its
influence by forming alliances with political parties. The
author analyzes the Church's differing strategies in Italy,
France, and Germany using microeconomic theories of the
firm and historical institutionalism. She demonstrates how
only a strategic perspective can explain the choice and
longevity of the alliances in each case. In so doing, the
author challenges earlier work that ignores the costs to
interest groups and parties of sustaining or breaking
their reciprocal links. Confessions of an Interest Group
challenges the view of the Catholic Church as solely a
moral force whose interests are seamlessly represented by
the Christian Democratic parties. Blending theory,
cultural narrative, and archival research, Warner
demonstrates that the French Church's superficial and
brief connection with a political party was directly
related to its loss of political influence during the War.
The Italian Church's power, on the other hand, remained
stable through the War, so the Church and the Christian
Democrats more easily found multiple grounds for long-term
cooperation. The German Church chose yet another path,
reluctantly aligning itself with a new Catholic-Protestant
party. This book is an important work that expands the
growing literature on the economics of religion, interest
group behavior, and the politics of the Catholic Church.
