Confessional Processes in Russia: From Atheism to Religious Pluralism / Procesy przemian wyznaniowych w Rosji: od ateizmu do religijnego pluralizmu
Journal Title: Przegląd Socjologiczny - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue 3
Abstract
Modern Russian society is undergoing a transition from a paradigm of communistic ideology to an ideology which gives prominent recognition to historical national spiritual institutes. The multi-religious state is entering into the world arena, democratic in its religious aspect. The legal basis of this process are the provisions of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, the Civil code of the country, and the law “Concerning Freedom of Worship and Religious Associations”, as well as the regulations adopted in territorial units of the Russian Federation. Russian society includes more than sixty faiths in its religious space, the tasks and functions of which are connected with the need for spiritual education of members of society, elimination of contradictions between ethnic cultures and values, and the formation of a tolerant society. The general trend is toward the revival of religion, its organizations and associations, and a gradual release from dogmatism in world views, as well as the formation of democratic principles corresponding to the functioning of a civil society.
