(''Social Alternative'') was a
Coalition of
Neo-fascist Political Parties In Italy .
The coalition grew from
Social Action , which was founded by
Benito Mussolini's granddaughter
Alessandra Mussolini after she left the
National Alliance due to their attempts to move away from their fascist past.
Mussolini united her group with the
National Social Front and
New Force for the
2004 European Parliament Election , gaining one seat in the
European Parliament . The group was committed to a strong Italian nationalism that celebrates and glorifies its past, and has been particularly critical of
Gianfranco Fini 's modernisation of the right.
For the
2005 Regional Elections , also the
Tricolour Flame (''Fiamma Tricolore'') joined the alliance, only to leave it some months later.
In the
2006 Italian General Elections the coalition was a member of the defeated
House Of Freedoms and won no seats. The alliance was disbanded in late 2006 and replace by a new pact between Social Action, New Force, the
Social Idea Movement and the
National Volunteers .
