Abstract
The Pope, as a spiritual and temporal leader, wields a double sovereignty: over the City of the vatican as Head of State, and over the Holy See (or Apostolic See) as Head of the Roman Catholic Church. This fundamental distinction, "perennialized" by the 1929 Latran accords, is at the basis of the papal foreign policy: although it is sometimes designed as the emanation of the vatican's national sovereignty, it is generally carried out in the name of the Holy See (the religious authority).
