Taizé and Serbia
Апстракт
Describing the relationship of the Communist authorities towards the Serbian Orthodox Church
(SOC) in Yugoslavia after the Second World War is not an easy task. Due to the large time-frame of
such an extensive topic, the comprehensive study could not be written, therefore different
researchers approached the subject in fragments and in the domain of their own competence. Many
historians, sociologists, cultural historians and priests have dealt with this subject. 2 The general
feature of literature relating to Yugoslav communism is that often ‘this study was burdened by
ideology and politics, especially when it comes to works created in the period of socialist
Yugoslavia’. 3 A revolutionary subject created an ideal image of itself in the public and avoided
politically sensitive topics, and particularly important aspects in the construction of this image were
the issues related to the national liberation struggle and revolution. The Communist Party was
identified with the State... and its history, and imposed itself as the sole interpreter of events, whereas
a researcher “only had a role there if his professional legitimacy could assist in the maintenance of
these images and myths.” 4 On the other hand, the anti-Communists in exile recounted their version
of events in their own narrow circles, recorded the experiences and memories of past events and
created their own myths, often in order to find justification for their own defeat. 5
Regarding Yugoslavia, we can note several periods of different duration in which the Communist
ideology was gradually implemented in creating the State institutions, while the elimination of
political opponents was carried out.
