The commitment to showing that there was a wide spectrum of understandings of religious freedom in imperial Russia is particularly praiseworthy, turning the attention of scholars away from a monolithic vision focused on liberal theorists and the autocracy's failure to implement freedom of conscience to a more multidimensional account of various trends, discourses, and institutions interacting with one another., This brief summary does not do justice to the consistently impressive research and analysis--as well as the diversity of voices, positions, and experiences--that these eight chapters bring to the discussion of 'freedom of conscience' in Russia. This book should be welcomed by scholars in the fields of religious history, intellectual history and the history of the Russian Empire., Edited by Randall Poole and Paul Werth, the splendid Religious Freedom in Modern Russia offers eight essays that explore historical, social, and philosophical and theological dimensions of religious freedom in Russia., "This stimulating collection of essays is a major contribution to the study of religious policy in modern Russia. It provides a valuable and comprehensive picture of the theory and praxis of religious policy, as a multi-confessional empire sought to reconcile its traditional ties to the Orthodox Church with the expectations of the non-Orthodox (roughly a third of the Empire in 1897)." -- Gregory Freeze, Brandeis University, "Russia tends to be associated with limits on religion rather than with its freedom. This book offers a richer and more nuanced narrative. In fascinating and eloquent detail, leading authorities trace little-known traditions of Russian religious freedom--including toleration and freedom of conscience-- evolving and sometimes thriving in difficult contexts, from early modernity to today's global spiritual marketplace." -- Nadieszda Kizenko, SUNY Albany, Russia tends to be associated with limits on religion rather than with its freedom.

Synopsis
Despite Russia's religiously diverse population and the strong connection between the Russian state and the Orthodox Chuch, the problem of religious freedom has been a driving force in the country's history. This volume gathers leading scholars to provide an extensive exploration of the evolution, experience, and contested meanings of religious freedom in Russia from the early modern period to the present, with a particular focus on the nineteenth century. Addressing different spiritual traditions, clerics and revolutionaries, ideas and lived experience, Religious Freedom in Modern Russia explores the various meanings that religious freedom, toleration, and freedom of conscience had in Russia among nonstate sectors., Despite Russia's religiously diverse population and the strong connection between the Russian state and the Orthodox Church, the problem of religious freedom has been a driving force in the country's history.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
