The construction of Orthodox churches in post-communist Romania

Liviu Andreescu

Europe-Asia Studies, 2007, vol. 59, issue 3, 451-480

Abstract: Against the background of church – state relations in contemporary Romania, this article explores the question of the construction of places of worship by the Romanian Orthodox Church after 1989. Besides providing and analysing general figures, it focuses on the proliferation of Orthodox churches in state-owned and state-operated institutions, and on the issue of funding. It also offers an examination of relevant legislation and its implications on church construction.
