Religiozita na Slovensku: stredoeurópsky rámec
Religiosity in Slovakia and its European Context

Summary/Abstract: Religiosity in Slovakia and its European Context. The article analyses the degree of religiosity and the religious revival in Slovakia using data from the European Values Study (EVS) conducted in 1991 and 1999 as well as the International Social Survey Program (ISSP Religion) conducted in 1998. Slovak religiosity is compared in different dimensions with religiosity in some West European countries as presented by EVS in 1991. Central East European context for comparing Slovak religiosity is taken from M. Tomka - P. M. Zulehner work (Gott nach dem Kommunismus). Not only dimensions of religiosity defined by L. Halman and R. de Moor in EVS research project were examined but also the religious sociological typology elaborated by J. Dantine, W. Dantine, T. Krobath and H. Ungar (Ewangelisch). The article concludes that church involvement became a social norm in 19-nineties and the traditional type of religiosity is the most characteristic in Slovakia.
