Eastern Orthodox positions on violence

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingBook chapterResearchpeer-review

Abstract

In the post-communist era from 1989 onwards, Eastern Europe has seen a number of conflicts between various national, political, and, to a large extent, religious groups. A common theme throughout all of these conflicts has been the crucial role that religion—often Eastern Orthodox Christianity—and nationalism have played (see Merdjanova, 2000; Payne, 2007).
