Turning Outwards or Turning Inwards? The Russian Orthodox Church Challenged by Fundamentalism
The 1997 Russian law on religion recognizes Orthodoxy, Islam, Judaism, and Buddhism as the “traditional religions” of Russia. These religions see themselves as having an important role to play in achieving social stability, and particularly in overcoming religious “extremism” and the perceived threat it poses to society. “Traditional'” religions stand shoulder to shoulder, explaining that the values they champion tend towards the creation and pre…
Orthodox Christian Societies
Notes on Autocephaly and Phyletism
Autocephaly independence and self-government is an attribute of the major Orthodox Churches. Theoretically it offers no scope for isolationism or exclusivism. John Meyendorff traces its origin to the arrangements whereby local communities of believers in the early church came into association with each other. The initiative was with the local church. Pluralism was maintained; it was necessary, however, for all local churches to remain part of the…

It was like the sun suddenly shining on me!' exclaimed a young woman standing next to me, one of the small crowd who had been waiting patiently for an hour or more for a glimpse of their 'teacher', Vissarion. He had just appeared briefly on the balcony of the church, dressed in his dark red robes, to greet his followers, before going back inside to continue the day's briefing with his priest and elders. It was a warm silent May afternoon in the d…

The 'liberation theology ' of Latin America is well known. Less well known is the fact that a 'theology of liberation ' developed in Eastern Europe before the fall of communism. It was not systematically developed: it could hardly have been so, given the pressures there against any kind of creative theological speculation. In the various countries and churches where such a theology did develop, however, the common features it shared were remarkab…
Religious Policy in the Soviet Union
Church-state relations have undergone a number of changes during the seven decades of the existence of the Soviet Union. In the 1920s the state was politically and financially weak and its edicts often ignored, but the 1930s saw the beginning of an era of systematic anti-religious persecution. There was some relaxation in the last decade of Stalin's rule, but under Khrushchev the pressure on the Church was again stepped up. In the Brezhev period …

The Russian Orthodox Church and the Soviet State
The Constitution of the USSR guarantees religious freedom, but the ruling Communist Party actively encourages the disappearance of religion. In the 1930s there was comprehensive religious persecution, but despite the virtual disappearance of the Russian Orthodox Church as an institution, the believing population did not give up its faith. During World War II, Stalin adopted a new policy. He granted the churches a limited institutional existence, …
