How did Togliatti contribute to the liberalisation of Communist parties?

  • After his death

  • By aggressive campaigns

  • Through forceful policies

  • Via educational programs

Answer

Togliatti, the leader of the Italian Communist Party, advocated for a more flexible and democratic form of communism known as Eurocommunism in the 1960s and 1970s. He believed that communist parties should adapt to their national contexts and abandon the rigid control of the Soviet Union. Togliatti's ideas influenced other communist parties in Western Europe, and contributed to the liberalisation of communist thought and practice during the Cold War.
