Medieval suggestions and newest Middle Ages in Romano Guardini's political analysis

Abstract

Romano Guardini does not want to replicate the medieval world, but he finds in the union of «faith and world» which he considers typical of the Middle Ages a useful means to avoid any dictatorship in Europe. The Middle Ages becomes therefore a political model for contemporary society. To refer to this theory, the Author usea the expression «Newest Middle Ages».
