Reseña del editor:

In 1988 Russian Orthodox Christians celebrated the millenium of Christianity in Russia. This text examines the state of Christianity in Russia today, questioning whether religion is really freely exercised in contemporary Russia. It looks back to the past for historical explanations of present ills. Some estimates put the number of Christian worshippers in Russia as at least 30 million. Soviet officials and Russian churchmen affirm that religion is "free", but other authoritive sources publish reports of Christians being imprisoned or sent to penal work camps or internal exile. Some believe that Russian Christians who suffer harassment, imprisonment or exile represent the only true Church. This study attempts to discover the truth from these various differing factions.
