This volume highlights three intertwined aspects of the global
context of Orthodox Christianity: religion, politics, and human
rights. The chapters in Part I address the challenges of modern
human rights discourse to Orthodox Christianity and examine
conditions for active presence of Orthodox churches in the public
sphere of plural societies. It suggests theoretical and empirical
considerations about the relationship between politics and
Orthodoxy by exploring topics such as globalization, participatory
democracy, and the linkage of religious and political discourses in
Russia, Greece, Belarus, Romania, and Cyprus. Part II looks at the
issues of diaspora and identity in global Orthodoxy, presenting
cases from Switzerland, America, Italy, and Germany. In doing so,
the book ties in with the growing interest resulting from the
novelty of socio-political, economic, and cultural changes which
have forced religious groups and organizations to revise and
redesign their own institutional structures, practices, and
agendas.
