RELIGIA ŞI MORALITATEA SOVIETICĂ. PERCEPŢII PARLAMENTARE INTERBELICE ROMÂNEŞTI
Religion and Soviet Morality. Romanian Interwar Parliamentary Perceptions

Summary/Abstract: The most reports about religion in the interwar U.S.S.R. belong to the right-wing MP-ies. Romanian left was not generally interested in these issues. The right presented the Communist state as a mechanism designed to promote atheism and persecution of the of the Soviet Christians. Also, the Romanian Orthodox Church's influence in the Balkans, Bessarabian churches restoration were pragmatically considered by some MPs in close connection with religious situation in the Soviet Union. In the same manner, the Soviet family and morality secularization was received with suspicion by some Romanian MP-ies, who considered it a measure in order to increase state control over citizens. The Soviet law divorce, very lax, has sparked a wave of indignation in Parliament, being perceived as a sign of promiscuity. However, sexual permissiveness did not place strict Soviet society. Subsequently, hints about the lack of decent families lives have ceased to be presented to Romanian Parliament tribune.
