The mid-1950s split in the Labor Party was driven by intense ideological battles between a small group of Communists and anti-Communist forces led by B.A. Santamaria. Santamaria's controversial activities and the influence of his semi-clandestine organization, the Movement, sparked significant debate within the Catholic Church. This comprehensive account, based on previously unreleased documents and interviews with key figures, explores the split's lasting impact on Australian politics. The work is positioned as a definitive resource on the Movement, alongside Stuart Macintyre's study of the Communist Party.
