	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Conclave
		Access to the conclave is free through one door only, locked from without by the Marshal of the Conclave (formerly a member of the Savelli, since 1721 of the Chigi, family), and from within by the cardinal camerlengo.
		Papal legislation has long since forbidden the once customary "capitulations", or ante-election agreements binding on the new pope; it is also forbidden to cardinals to treat of the papal succession among themselves during the pope's lifetime; the pope may, however, treat of the matter with the cardinals.
		The conclave then usually terminates, the masons remove the temporary walls, and the cardinals retire to their various lodgings in the city, awaiting a reassembling for the second and third adoratio and for the solemn enthroning.

		Outside the conclave, the camerlengo is assisted by the sostituto of the Secretariat of State, who directs Vatican personnel to protect the integrity and security of the conclave.

		VATICAN CITY (AP) A cardinal has broken his vow of secrecy and released his diary describing the conclave that elected Pope Benedict XVI, revealing in an exceedingly rare account that a cardinal from Argentina was the main challenger and almost blocked Benedict's election.

	Context:Rome - The Papal Conclave
		The ceremony of the election of a pope is called a conclave, a word deriving from the Latin cum clave which means "with a key," indicating that the cardinals are sequestered from all prying eyes and ears, as well as from those who would want to influence their decision.
		A new option was given by Pope John Paul II in his revision of the conclave procedures in 1996 in the document "Universi Dominici Gregis": after 12 days of voting, the cardinals can decide to move to a simple majority of half the votes, or to limit the voting for the top two candidates.
		The cardinals voting in the recent conclave represent fifty countries on six continents, a fact which expresses the true diversity and universality of the Church.

	Online NewsHour: A Historical Perspective of the Papal Conclave -- April 18, 2005
		There's a "conclave," that is, a bunch of cardinals walking around in the City of Perturbo for about two and a half years, sometimes voting, sometimes not.
		For instance, in the Middle Ages or the Renaissance, the people who were passing the dishes back and forth, the dirty dishes during the conclave, used to chalk on the bottom of the plates the names of the cardinals and their tally counts.
		It was Paul VI who said, "We truly are now a global Church." And he began to appoint cardinals all over the globe and also bring bishops and cardinals into the Vatican to bring their ideas.

	papal conclave
		To belabor the obvious, the election of a non-European pope, a Latin American or an African, would signal recognition that the center of gravity in Catholicism, as in Christianity generally, is in process of shifting from the northern hemisphere to the south, from the developed world to the developing.
		On the other hand, the choice of a European would suggest an emphasis on the new evangelization launched by John Paul in hopes of re-Christianizing regions like Western Europe where recent decades have witnessed a decline of faith and religious practice in the face of aggressive secularism.
		This is to say that it is the continuity of the tradition from one pontiff to the next which is the central element in any papal succession.
