A resilient harmony, or how the politics of social inequality in post-Soviet Russian society have informed Orthodox parish life
Résumé
Recently, the idea of a symphonic relationship between state and church in countries with a dominant Orthodox church has most commonly been defined as the harmonious collaboration between these two centers where, respectively, political and religious power reside. This commonsensical definition of symphony has come under scrutiny in different fields of the social-scientific study of the religious resurgence in postsocialist Eastern-European countries. Most scholars note a specific entrenchment of the Orthodox churches in the political sphere and, reciprocally, the states' interventionist approach to the Orthodox ecclesiastic organizations. Consensus is sometimes the hallmark of this mutual influence.
