Is there a specific typical Catholic in terms of voting orientation and representation of politics? The results of the study presented below are aimed to try and find answers to this question. The study is part of a series of in-depth studies of the Electoral Sociology Observatory of the Department of Communication and Social Research, of the «Sapienza» University of Rome, and focuses on the values and political orientations of Catholics belonging to the varied world of associations and activism. The analysis was carried out through an ad hoc survey, and focus groups were conducted to highlight the concept of politics and Catholic activism in Rome at the eve of the elections in February 2013
