In modern Russia, the question is raised about the revival of the spirituality of the population, which increases interest in studying the history of the church.

In the pre-revolutionary period, the Orthodox Church in the Russian Empire had a significant impact on the formation of national culture and statehood.

Actively cooperating with the state, the Orthodox Church has accumulated vast experience in the field of education, missionary work, and charity.

This experience in today's Russia can be used to solve the most important tasks in the moral education of young people who will contribute to the future of Russia.

Examining the Relationship Between the Russian Orthodox Church and Secular Authorities in the 19th and 20th Centuries focuses on the system of spiritual education, the social and psychological characteristics of the clergy of the Russian Orthodox Church, and the tradition of Orthodox pilgrimage.

It explores the key areas of charitable and educational activities of the Orthodox Church during the period of religious transformation in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Covering topics such as missionary activity, secular authority, and church land tenure, this premier reference source is a dynamic resource for historians, anthropologists, sociologists, researchers in politics and religion, librarians, students and faculty of higher education, and academicians.
