The continuing search for new forms of religiosity in modern societies. This time about the

about the modern ideology of human rights, the religious approach to the term sect, the role of
religion in ethnopolitical conflicts, relations of churches in the Czech Republic to the state,
about modifications and the status of Russian new religious movements in the society and the
state ... and once more, about a huge amount of causalities. Slovak - English version with one
Spanish exception. (2006)

Modern Religion
Edited by Silvia Jozefčiaková
2005, Institute for State-Church Relations, 344 pp.
ISBN 80-89096-23-9
The goal of this project is searching for answer to a question: 'Does religiosity peter out of
modern society or just gains new forms'? We are going to investigate how traditional religions
adapt to postmodern time, what kind of religiosity (not closed to traditional religious forms)
we can find nowadays. A lot of present religious forms do not seem like religious but
basically they are a secular form of religiosity.

New Age
Edited by Michaela Moravčíková
2005, Institute for State-Church Relations, 686 pp.
ISBN 80-89096-19-0
At present a disintegration of ambiguous, mystical-esoteric nebula of New Age can be visible
to the naked eye. New Age as a specific product of the post-modern age is only one of its
manifestations. This publication tries to show various aspects of New Age through diverse
approaches and points of view. It has come into being thanks to the kind willingness of
authors who offered their opinions on this wide-spectral phenomenon. This project would
have been autotelic indeed if it did not encourage the reader to think and open a number of
new ranges of issues. What grooves has New Age left on us, what will remain unforgotten
and what drives people forward? What will the „next age“ be like?
Islam in Europe
Edited by Michaela Moravčíková and Miroslav Lojda
2005, Institute for State-Church Relations, 380 pp.
ISBN 80-89096-22-0
Islam and Europe belong to the most frequently used words nowadays. So if we connect them,
we find ourselves on the pulse of events. Muslims create one fifth of mankind and the Muslim
population has the majority in forty-four countries of the world. Europe, like America, has
become a truly multicultural region after World War II. This multiculturalism means for them
not only enrichment but also complications. The number of muslim communities has
increased dramatically. They represent an important part of European societies not only in
capitals of Western Europe and Moscow, but gradually also in other countries of former
socialist bloc.
Europe and New Religious Movements II
Edited by Miroslav Lojda
2005, Institute for State-Church Relations, 151 pp.
ISBN 80-89096-21-2
The publication maps the legislative arrangements of the status of new religious movements
in several European countries. (Belarus, Estonia, Finland, Netherlands, Croatia, Portugal,

Republic.
