EASTERN AND CENTRAL EUROPEAN VOICES VOLUME 00...

Post-war Lower Silesia was intended to be a laboratory of socialism by the communists. Hence 
they developed and pursued a special policy towards the Catholic Church. The book highlights
the specificity of the pastoral ministry provided by the successive rulers of the Church in
Wroclaw in the realities of the communist state. It analyses  for example  the role of Cardinal
Kominek and it presents the system of repression aimed at diocesan clergy and religious orders
and limiting theological education. It also shows the Church's response to the process of
secularization in the Lower Silesian society. The first work in English on the struggle of the
Catholic Church in Lower Silesia with the communist regime after World War II.
