The Radical Federative Movement (Movimento Federativo Radicale, MFR) was a social-liberal political party in Italy.
The MFR was formed in November 1982 as a split from Marco Pannella's Radical Party (PR).
The leader of the split was Giuseppe Rippa, a former national secretary of the Radicals, other participants were Franco De Cataldo, Silvio Pergameno, Gaetano Quagliariello and Valter Vecellio.
The main reason of the split was that the dissenters wanted a stable alliance between the PR and the Italian Socialist Party (PSI), led by Bettino Craxi at the time.
[2] Later on, both Rippa and Vecellio returned into the Radicals' fold, while Quagliariello followed many fellow Socialists into Forza Italia and, later, The People of Freedom.
