Katin, V. I. Church as the Political Subject
(Based on the Example of the Russian Orthodox Church)
Abstract:
The author of the article views a debating point
about modern Russian Orthodox Church being the political
subject. The author describes forms of participation
of church in the Russian political process and raises the
question about legitimacy of new forms of relations between
church and state institution beyond the borders of
applicable laws. The article contains the deÞ nition of modern
relations between church and state institution in the
Russian Federation. As a result of his study, the author
makes the following conclusion. Firstly, the study allows
to prove the status of church as the political subject. Undoubtedly,
Russian Orthodox Church is an active political
actor in modern Russia. Secondly, taking into account the
ontological nature of church, it should be noted that its
participation in the political process and inß uence have
very speciÞ c features. Church often participates in the political
process indirectly. Thirdly, churchs activity as the
political subject mostly depends on particular relations
between church and state at the present moment. Fourthly,
in the past decade Russia has been demonstrating a growing
inß uence of the Russian Orthodox Church on many
sides of social and state life. Fifthly, Russian state, its political
and government authorities need to legitimize new
precedents in relations between church and government
taking into account multi-confessional nature of Russia as
well as to keep social and religious peace and a politically
stable society. The article will be interesting for graduate
and post-graduate students studying politics, religious,
law and preparing for seminars, tests and exams as well
as for college and university teachers preparing for their
lectures, guidelines and etc.
