In the coming days, the College of Cardinals is expected to set a date for the conclave to choose a successor to Pope Benedict XVI. Pope Benedict will not be involved in the selection. The conclave follows precise rules developed and refined over centuries. The name comes from “cum clave," meaning “with a key," signifying that the cardinals are locked in for the election.
