The Provisions Against Religious
$ The Journal of CESNUR $ The Provisions Against Religious Extremism and Illegal Business Activity as Instruments for Outlawing Religious Minorities in Russia: The Case of the Church of Scientology Boris Falikov Russian State University for the Humanities, Moscow [email protected] ABSTRACT: This paper, presented at the Kaunas conference Religion(s) and Power(s) of October 5– 6, 2017, has been updated with remarks I made at the seminar co-organized by CESNUR at the American University of Central Asia in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, on March 19–20, 2018. Its starting point is that the policy of discrimination towards religious minority groups is increasing in Russia. It is one of the consequences of the alliance of the Kremlin and the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC), which is a part of the government’s strategy of turning more conservative and isolating Russia from the Western world. The two main legal instruments for outlawing religious minorities are two articles of the Criminal Code: 282 (against extremism) and 171 (against illegal business activity). As the authorities quickly found out, the public fear of religious terrorism, combined with suspicions of illegal enrichment of foreign-based groups, made it quite safe for them to get rid of unwanted religious groups by using these tools. The objections of a small number of defenders of religious freedom inside of Russia, including religious scholars, were dismissed. The indignation such discriminating policy raises abroad only proves to the Kremlin that its is indeed on the right track, making Russia an invincible fortress against the morally corrupted West. KEYWORDS: Scientology, Jehovah’s Witnesses, New Religious Movements in Russia, Extremism in Russia, Repression of Illegal Business Activity in Russia. -
What Is Really Happening in Russia? a Response to Prof
$ The Journal of CESNUR $ What Is Really Happening in Russia? A Response to Prof. Introvigne and Prof. Falikov PierLuigi Zoccatelli Pontifical Salesian University [email protected] ABSTRACT: The author discusses the papers of Massimo Introvigne and Boris Falikov within the framework of the activities against the “cults” of the Orthodox Church and the anti-cult movement in Russia. In the first part, he compares Introvigne’s and Falikov’s respective approaches to the legal background of the anti-cult campaigns in Russia. He also emphasizes the argument used by Russian anti-cultist and courts, that the fact that certain movements registered their names as trademarks in the United States proves that they are commercial rather than religious organizations. This argument appears to be based on a misunderstanding, as all major religions, including an umbrella organization of which the Russian Orthodox Church is part, also registered trademarks in the United States. In the second part, the text discusses the relationship between the Russian Orthodox Church and the anti-cult movement in Russia, and whether a dialogue on religious liberty with Russian Orthodox milieus is really possible. KEYWORDS: Scientology, Scientology in Russia, Anti-Cult Movement in Russia, Anti-Extremism Laws in Russia, Religious Liberty in Russia. Introduction The papers by Professor Falikov and Professor Introvigne start from recent events in Russia: the “liquidation” of the Jehovah’s Witnesses and the attempt by the Russian authorities to similarly “liquidate” the Church of Scientology. Both emphasize that several other groups are in danger of being “liquidated.” For a Westerner, the word “liquidation” sounds somewhat sinister and has definite echoes of the Stalinist era. -

From the Jehovah's Witnesses to Scientology and Beyond
$ The Journal of CESNUR $ Research Notes Scientology, Anti-Cultists, and the State in Russia and Hungary On October 5–6, 2017, Vytautas Magnus University in Kaunas, Lithuania, hosted the conference Religion(s) and Power(s), organized by the the Lithuanian Society for the Study of Religions in co-operation with the Estonian Society for the Study of Religions and the Latvian Society for the Study of Religion. We publish the texts of the session “‘Cults,’ Anti-Cultists, and Power in Russia. Anti-Extremism Laws and the Case of the Church of Scientology.” To document how Russian concepts of “spiritual security” are being exported in other countries, we also include a paper on Hungary by Patricia Duval, from the seminar Religion and Civil Society in the Post-Soviet Era: Central Asia and Beyond, co-organized by CESNUR at the American University of Central Asia, Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, on March 19–20, 2018. The Social Construction of “Extremism” in Russia: From the Jehovah’s Witnesses to Scientology and Beyond Massimo Introvigne Center for Studies on New Religions [email protected] ABSTRACT: After the 2017 “liquidation” of the Jehovah’s Witnesses, Russia moved to liquidate other new religious movements, including the Church of Scientology. While international criticism often focused on the Russian anti-proselytization laws of 2016, it was in fact the anti-extremism law of 2002, as amended in 2006, that became the main tool for “liquidating” unpopular minorities. In the Russian context, the local anti-cult movement led by Alexander Dvorkin and by radical sectors of the Orthodox Church, accredited itself as the custodian of the nationalist doctrine of “spiritual security,” aimed at shielding Russian from “foreign” spiritual and cultural influences. -

UNIVERSAL PERIODIC REVIEW Submission Regarding the Russian
UNIVERSAL PERIODIC REVIEW Submission Regarding the Russian Federation By Church of Scientology International I. Misuse of Extremism Law Against Religions 1.The gravest threat to religious freedom in Russia is the government’s escalating use of the Federal Act of 25 July 2002 (with subsequent amendments), “On Counteracting Extremist Activity” (“Extremism Law” or “Law”) to censor religious scriptures and harass and disrupt religious organizations under the pretext of combating “religious extremism.” 2. The Law provides for harsh penalties against organizations, providing for the possibility of suspension or banning of their activity, liquidation of the organization conducting or suspected of conducting of extremist activity, forfeiture of property and prosecution of individuals associated with the organization for distributing banned materials or for continuing the activities of the organization subsequent to liquidation. 3. Once religious works are on the Federal List of Extremist Materials, the government opens investigations, raids homes and churches, seizes and forfeits the works and prosecutes individuals of the faith in question. 4. The Scientology religion, its parishioners and its religious and social organizations have been a recurring target of this national government campaign of religious repression. Scientology organizations have been the target of numerous raids and “investigations” under this law. The Church of Scientology has also prevailed in a number of court decisions – over ten - under this law. 5. In addition, in 2010, after an ex parte hearing without any notice to the Church or anyone connected to the Church, 29 articles of basic Scientology Scriptures were declared “extremist” by the Surgut City Court and improperly placed on the extremist materials list before a final judgment was rendered. -
2009 International Religious Freedom Report
Religious Discrimination: Scientology in Russia Submission by Church of Scientology OSCE Supplementary Human Dimension Meeting: Freedom of Religion or Belief Warsaw 29 September Scientology Churches and Missions have been refused the right to register as religious organizations under the 1997 Russian Federation law "On Freedom of Conscience and Associations" (Religion Law) and have been subject to never- ending investigations and liquidation proceedings. The Religion Law requires religious groups to have at least a 15-year presence in the country to be eligible to register as religious organizations. Scientology Churches have been refused registration under the 15 –year rule of the Religion Law and, in the case of the Moscow Scientology Church, pursuant to arbitrary and discriminatory rulings designed to bar any registration of Scientology religious groups under the Religion Law. The Church has sought relief from this discrimination in the European Human Rights Court. This memorandum provides a summary of matters relating to Scientology in Russia. Moscow Church of Scientology Re-Registration Case: European Court of Human Rights By way of background, the Church of Scientology of Moscow is a religious association and officially registered as such in January 1994. On 1 October 1997, the Religion Law entered into force, requiring all religious associations previously granted the status of a legal entity to bring their articles of association into conformity with the Religion Law and to re-apply for registration with the competent Justice Department before 31 December 2000. Failure to obtain “re- registration” before the expiration of that time limit exposed the Church to the threat of dissolution by judicial decision. -
