Popular Alternative

In November 2013 The People of Freedom (PdL), the centre-right party led by Silvio Berlusconi, was transformed back into Forza Italia (FI). A group of dissidents, led by Angelino Alfano, opposed the move and launched the New Centre-Right (NCD).{{cite book|author=Nicolas Bonnet|chapter=Silvo's Party|editor1=Agnès Alexandre-Collier|editor2=François Vergniolle De Chantal|title=Leadership and Uncertainty Management in Politics: Leaders, Followers and Constraints in Western Democracies|chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=v1ROCgAAQBAJ&pg=PA105|year=2015|publisher=Palgrave Macmillan|isbn=978-1-137-43924-6|pages=105–106}} Up to then, Alfano had been national secretary of the PdL and Berlusconi's protégé. Since its foundation, the NCD was part of the Italian governments successively led by Enrico Letta, Matteo Renzi and Paolo Gentiloni, all three members of the Democratic Party (PD), and Alfano served as Minister of the Interior and Foreign Affairs.

On 18 March 2017 the NCD was dissolved into Popular Alternative (AP).{{cite web|url=http://www.repubblica.it/politica/2017/03/18/news/ncd_si_scioglie_alfano_alternativa_popolare-160836250/|title=Ncd si scioglie, Alfano battezza "Alternativa Popolare"|date=18 March 2017}} Alfano's aim was to build a centre-right alliance with FI, while being at odds with Lega Nord (LN) and the Brothers of Italy (FdI), deemed "populist".{{cite web|url=http://www.gazzettadiparma.it/news/italia-mondo/420298/alfano-fi-sta-con-lepenisti-centrodestra-non-innovabile.html|title=Alfano, FI sta con lepenisti, centrodestra non-innovabile}} Alfano also proposed a primary election to select the centre-right candidate for Prime Minister.{{cite web|url=http://www.ilmessaggero.it/primopiano/politica/alfano_ncd_alternativa_popolare-2325600.html|title=Ncd addio, Alfano lancia Alternativa popolare: primarie per la leadership|date=18 March 2017 }}

Virtually all NCD's leading members (including Maurizio Lupi, Roberto Formigoni, Beatrice Lorenzin, Fabrizio Cicchitto, Antonio Gentile, Gabriele Albertini, Laura Bianconi, Giovanni La Via and Francesco Colucci) followed Alfano in the new party, while Maurizio Sacconi joined Stefano Parisi's Energies for Italy (EpI).{{cite web|url=http://www.ilfogliettone.it/sacconi-lascia-alfano-approda-energie-litalia-parisi-adesione-strada-altarnativa|title=Sacconi lascia Alfano e approda a Energie per l'Italia.

Since its foundation AP was abandoned by five deputies (four re-joining FI, one joining the PD) and four senators (one joining FI, another the FdI and two the Federation of Freedom, FdL), while two deputies switched from the Liberal Popular Alliance (ALA).{{cite web|url=http://www.camera.it/leg17/217?idlegislatura=17&idGruppo=2789&idGruppoMisto=&tipoVis=|title=Camera.it – XVII Legislatura – Deputati e Organi Parlamentari – Composizione gruppi Parlamentari|website=camera.it}}{{cite web|url=http://www.senato.it/Leg17/4244|title=senato.it – Senato della Repubblica senato.it – Variazioni nei Gruppi parlamentari|website=senato.it}} One of the deputies who left the party was Enrico Costa, who also resigned as minister of Regional Affairs from Paolo Gentiloni's government{{cite web|url=http://www.repubblica.it/politica/2017/07/19/news/si_e_dimesso_ministro_costa-171149741|title=Governo, si è dimesso ministro Enrico Costa: "Niente ambiguità"|date=19 July 2017}}{{cite web|url=https://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2017/07/19/governo-enrico-costa-si-dimette-area-popolare-perde-pezzi-lex-ministro-piu-importanti-le-convinzioni-delle-posizioni/3739979|title=Enrico Costa si dimette: Gentiloni perde pezzi.

In the run-up of the 2018 general election AP, which was soundly defeated in the 2017 Sicilian regional election, was divided in three camps: those who wanted an alliance with the PD (Lorenzin and Cicchitto), those who proposed to run as a stand-alone list (Lupi) and those who were keen on returning with the centre-right coalition (Formigoni). The decision by the party's national board was postponed several times.{{cite web|url=https://www.huffingtonpost.it/2017/11/24/andare-da-soli-o-allearsi-con-il-pd-ap-avvia-unistruttoria-per-decidere_a_23287524/|title=Andare da soli o allearsi con il Pd?

On 12 December 2017 AP's national board approved a consent settlement, under which the two parliamentary groups would continue to be active in order to prepare the electoral participation of the two main factions: the one led by Lorenzin and Cicchitto (backed by Alfano) with the centre-left (under the "Popular Alternative" name), the one led by Lupi and Formigoni with the centre-right (reviving the "New Centre-Right" banner).{{Cite news|url=https://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2017/12/12/alternativa-popolare-il-partito-si-scioglie-e-una-separazione-consensuale-per-ora-i-gruppi-parlamentari-restano-uniti/4035007/|title=Alternativa Popolare, il partito si scioglie: "È una separazione consensuale".

CP obtained a mere 0.5%, but the rump of AP, led by Lorenzin, had two elects to the Chamber from single-seat constituencies: Lorenzin herself and Gabriele Toccafondi. NcI scored a little better with 1.3% of the vote and a handful of former AP members, notably including Lupi, were elected in single-seat constituencies.

In September 2018 Alfano stepped down from AP presidency and was replaced by Paolo Alli.

The party's ideology is that of the NCD, as the former is the perfect continuation of the latter. Despite being home to some social democrats (Reformism and Freedom, We Reformers), the party was mainly a Christian-democratic party with a social-conservative streak. According to Corriere della Sera, differently from FI, NCD's stances on the "so-called ethical issues" (abortion, LGBT rights, etc.) were "closer to those of the European traditionalist right" and "thus not very compatible with those of the EPP's parties in big countries such as (Germany)".{{cite web|url=http://archiviostorico.corriere.it/2014/gennaio/04/azzurri_asse_sui_diritti_senza_co_0_20140104_a5011904-750a-11e3-9ec5-05cfbca29500.shtml |title=Pd-azzurri: asse sui diritti (senza Ncd) |work=Corriere della Sera |access-date=20 February 2014}} However, the party voted in favor of civil unions, whereas most FI members voted against it.{{cite web|url=http://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2016/05/11/unioni-civili-ok-al-voto-di-fiducia-369-si-renzi-e-un-giorno-di-festa-le-destre-da-passera-alla-lega-referendum/2717805/|title=Unioni civili sono legge: M5s si astiene.
