Partisan newspaper labeled "the organ of the Action Party," urging the liberation of Italy ahead of the Allied forces, which had reached Rome three days before. The short-lived Partito d'Azione formed in the summer of 1942, derived from uninterrupted clandestine opposition against the regime, and based its political program on the ethical commitment and humanitarian ideals of the anti-Fascist movement Giustizia e Libertà. During the first few years after the war, unwillingness of the "Actionists" to work with reviving political parties "tainted by association with Fascism" resulted in the rapid decline of the Partito d'Azione.
