Outline of a Serbian Orthodox Doctrine of Righteous War
The post-communist period has seen several wars in regions with a majority of Eastern Orthodox Christians. These conflicts have prompted Eastern Orthodox churches to formulate stances on war and develop new doctrines of righteous war. These responses draw on a long lineage of Eastern Roman and Slavonic traditions, particularly the Cyrillian doctrine of righteous war expounded in the Life of Constantine-Cyril. This paper examines the theological r…
The Organisation of Prayer Rooms in Educational Institutions in Denmark – Moderate Secularism Between Perception and Practice
In 2017, in a broadly publicised controversy, the Danish parliament discussed prayer rooms at educational institutions. The debate followed a series of issues arising from such institutionsʼ changing demography, resulting in increased Muslim presence.

The forging and forgetting the cult of St. Jovan Vladimir in contemporary Montenegro
After the fall of Communism, the Serbian Orthodox Church has experienced a significant revival, part of which has been the recollection of past events, personas, sites and shrines in order to re-establish its position in the post-Yugoslav republics.

This article analyzes the forging of this memoria…
Kosovo Crucified-Narratives in the Contemporary Serbian Orthodox Perception of Kosovo
In contemporary Serbian Orthodox texts, Kosovo is often referred to as the Serbian "Jerusalem": a city calling for a Christian defense. All Serbs are bound to heed the call in keeping with the Kosovo "covenant" or "pledge" dating back to the Battle of Kosovo Polje in 1389, when Serbian troops, led by Prince Lazar, were defeated by the invading Muslim Ottoman army. The battle and Kosovo in general have since then assumed a central symbolic role in…
A Shrine for the Nation
Mount Lovćen holds significant cultural, political and religious symbolism in Montenegro, especially due to the fact that the mountain is the last resting place of the prince-bishop and national poet Petar II Petrovich-Njegoš (1813–1851). In the twentieth century the grave of Njegoš has undergone profound material transformations. Each of these transformations has led to heated debates about the site’s religious and national significance. During …
