Civic religion as a means of solving problems of interfaith dialogue

Abstract

Oddly enough, in Ukraine for some reason it is not customary to speak of a civil religion. Some people, in view of the actualization of this phenomenon, are trying to accuse the Branch of Religious Studies of IFU of anti-confessional (sometimes even called specific religions or denominations) intentions. Some see this as a desire to find some kind of spiritual basis for possible totalitarian regimes in our country. Meanwhile, building a civil society in Ukraine should be relevant not only to the study of civil religion, but also to the work on introducing this phenomenon into the process of building such a society with which it is directly correlated.
