  • Shlikhta Ukrainian As Non
    Natalia Shlikhta “Ukrainian” as “Non-Orthodox”: How Greek Catholics Were “Reunited” with the Russian Orthodox Church, 1940s–1960s Translation by Jan Surer Natalia Shlikhta — History Department, National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy (Kyiv, Ukraine). [email protected] Drawing upon archival, published and oral sources, as well as recent stud- ies on the correlation between religion and nationality, this article argues that the formal “reunification” of the Greek Catholics with the Russian Or- thodox Church became a successful “subaltern strategy,” ensuring the sur- vival of the Greek Catholic Church through the Soviet period. The article demonstrates that the “Church within the Church,” which came into exist- ence because of “reunification,” for decades preserved its separate identi- ty within the Russian Orthodox Church. The “Church within the Church” did not oppose the regime’s assimilation policy directly, yet positioned it- self as Ukrainian and therefore as non-Orthodox (because non-Russian) and even as non-Soviet. This article examines these specific issues within the wider context of the survival of the Church in the Soviet state. Keywords: Russian Orthodox Church, Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, Church within the Church, national Church, Communist (So- viet) regime, reunification, ecclesiastical nationalism. Introduction HE “Uniate problem,” which the Stalinist leadership (with the help of the Moscow Patriarchate) undertook to resolve in whatever way pos- Tsible immediately upon the conclusion of the Second World War, was far from the only national challenge Moscow faced. Earlier, the existence of the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church in both its 1921 and 1942 in- carnations, as well as of the Ukrainian Autonomous Church headed by Arch- bishop Alexy (Hromadsky; Russian, Gromadsky), had represented similar challenges; the latter Church based its autonomous rights on the Resolution on the Ukrainian Exarchate of 1921.

These privileged dons have an army of research assistants (sometimes called “students”) whose uncopyrighted research is no doubt valuable as raw material. High salaries, total job security, secretaries, graduate assistants, grant money and a host of other privileges make their job much easier. How much of their books is really their work is something that is not likely to be solved. Given that so much of this is written by others, with the assistance of so many others, and on university time generously funded by taxpayers (among other people), the claim to copyright is a sick joke. While their privileges are many, it does come at a price: their total lack of freedom.

It documents uiolations ol the lundamental human right to lreedom ol conscience, aiolations which contradict the international accords relating to human rights to uthich the Souiet Union is a sign'atory. The present publication is part ol the international efforts, ini- tiated in 1976 by the World Congress ol Free Ukrainians, in delence of religion in Sooiet Ukraine. The purpose ol this boolelet, and the campaign in general, is to inlorm international public opinion about the plight ol belieaers in Uhraine and to encourage it to speak out against these uiolations ol international legality. Without the sus- tained, pressure ol world public opinion it can hardly be hoped that protests ol persecuted belieuers will be heard by the Souiet gouern- ment, or that it would, effectiuely enlorce the constitutional and, international gwarantees ol lreedom ol conscience in Souiet Ukraine. In particular, we are asking all men and u)on'Len ol good will to join with us in demanding that the Soaiet authorities release all clergy, monastics and, belieaers imprisoned lor their religious prac- tices and beliefs; that the Souiet gouerwnent remoue the illegal and unjust prohibition ol the Ukrainian Greele Catholic Church, the Ukrainian Autoceph,alous Orthodox Church and some other religious denominations in the Ukrainian SSR; and that it return the child,ren tahen lrorn their parents because ol the latter's raising them in ac- cordance with their religious beliefs.

    REPORT By His Grace Bishop Makarios of Christoupolis At the Synaxis of the Hierarchs of the Ecumenical Throne on The Ecclesiastical Issue in Ukraine (Constantinople, 1-3 September 2018) The first local ecclesiastical community, formed immediately after the Baptism of Vladimir and Kyivans in 988, was organized as a metropolis under the direct authority of the Ecumenical Patriarch1, possessing, according to the Taktikon of Alexios I Komnenos (1081-1118), the 60th place among the Dioceses of the Church of Constantinople and bearing the title "Metropolis of Kyiv and all Russia."2 During the Mongol invasion (1237-1340), the blossoming Metropolis of Kyiv suffered its first heavy blow. Most of its population moved to the north, and following their flock later elected Kyivan metropolitans resided not in Kyiv, but Vladimir, which was eventually approved and blessed by the Ecumenical Patriarchate with two ecclesiastical aspects underlined: Firstly, the residence of the Metropolitan of Kyiv in Vladimir was considered from the point of view of oikonomia and socio-political reasons, and secondly, not the See of the Metropolitan of Kyiv was established in Vladimir but the "second see" since the Mother Church recognized the historicity and significance of Kyiv and because that was the very place "where the see of the above-mentioned metropolis was located."3 The Metropolitan of Kyiv didn’t reside in Vladimir for long as Peter (1308-1326), ordained in 1308 Metropolitan of Kyiv and all Russia, moved the Kyiv Metropolis from Vladimir to Moscow in order to prove his support for Prince Yuri of Moscow, who conflicted with Prince Michael of Tver.

  • Economic Pressure on the Church in Ukraine During the Holodomor (1932–1933)
    Krakowskie Studia Małopolskie 2020, nr 1 (25) Tеtiana Hruzova1 Economic Pressure on the Church in Ukraine During the Holodomor (1932–1933) Introduction The Holodomor of 1932–1933 is the biggest disaster of the Ukrainian nation in the XX century. The social experiment conducted by the So- viet authorities resulted in millions of innocent victims. The Church, in which the Bolsheviks saw a threat, was one of the primary targets of this artificial famine. During the period of aggravation of social relations, provoked by the introduction of collectivization in 1928 and the fight against the kurkuls as a class, the church and clergy were viewed as sup- porters of the kurkuls and counter-revolutionaries. Therefore, they had to be completely eradicated and deprived of the possibility to influence worshippers. One of the methods of this extermination was economic pressure. The position of the church and the clergy during the Holodomor are reflected in a number of historical works by Oleg Boyko2, Tetiana 1 Postgraduate student Faculty of History, Zaporizhzhia National University,tanush - [email protected], https: // orcid.org/0000-0003-2260-9688. 2 O.V.
