Rainbow Greens
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rainbow Greens (Verdi Arcobaleno) was a green Italian political party.
It was founded in 1989 by splinters of Proletarian Democracy (Mario Capanna, Virginio Bettini, Gianni Tamino, Edo Ronchi and Paolo Gentiloni) and some leading Radicals (Maria Adelaide Aglietta, Adele Faccio, Francesco Rutelli, Franco Corleone and Marco Boato).
It took part in the 1989 European Parliament elections, under the denomination 'Rainbow Greens for Europe' (Verdi Arcobaleno per l'Europa).
In December 1990 it merged with the Green Lists (Gianni Mattioli, Lino De Benetti, Gianfranco Amendola, Alexander Langer, Enrico Falqui, Sauro Turroni and Alfonso Pecoraro Scanio) into the Federation of the Greens.
