New Force (Forza Nuova, FN) is an Italian far right political party, often described as neo-fascist.[1][2] Founded by Roberto Fiore and Massimo Morsello, and supporting the ideas of Julius Evola, the party is a member of the European National Front and was a part of the Social Alternative from 2003 to 2006. It may be the most extreme faction of the coalition, publishing fascist propaganda and using Celtic crosses as a political symbol. The party's ideology has strong roots in traditionalist Roman Catholicism. Forza Nuova has been linked to a number of acts of violence.[3] Forza Nuova activists were arrested in connection to bombings in Italy in 1999 and 2000.[4][5][6][7]
