Summary/Abstract: The civil society that fills the gap between the private and the strictly political state sphere plays an irreplaceable role in the democratic system both from the perspective of the articulation of various social perspectives and from the perspective of the moral health of society, establishing organizational support for active participation in public affairs. Civil society consists not only of prominent personalities but also of a variety of collective entities (cooperative unions, civil associations) including churches and religious communities.
