Church And State In Post-Communist Romania: Priorities On The Research Agenda

Abstract

This paper looks at the state of research on church- state relations in post-communist Romania in order to provide an outline of the most important questions which need to be addressed in the coming years. The article consists of two parts. First, a survey of academic studies published over the past two decades on the relationship between the country’s churches and state after 1990. Secondly, a breakdown of pressing church- state issues today, accompanied by short discussions of existing studies and suggestions as to what future research should probe into.
