This book provides a concise historical outline of religion in
Poland up until its entry into the European Union in 2004, together
with a longer presentation of contemporary religious issues. Albeit
largely mono-ethnic and overwhelmingly Catholic after the loss of
its large Jewish population to the Holocaust, and subsequent
post-World War II border shifts, traces of an historic diversity
remain in Poland to date, playing a greater role than mere numbers
would suggest. Poland's fairly robust religious life is affected by
the country's continuing modernization and its various
institutions, and this is discussed within a broad context. One of
the unfortunate legacies of decades of communism is a stunted civil
society; while at different levels there are conflicts involving
religion, at the grassroots it is one of the few forces building
much needed trust in present-day Polish society.
