Religious Persecution in the Soviet Union of the 1930s in the Light of the Catholic Weekly Dzwon Niedzielny

Abstract

The article discusses the problem of religious persecution in the Soviet Union, which was frequently covered and commented upon in the Catholic magazine Dzwon Niedzielny [Sunday Bell] in the 1930s. It presents the statements of the magazine’s journalists and editors, which were often based on eyewitness accounts of socio-political life in the USSR. The issue raised is but one exemplification of the multifaceted criticism of Sovietism voiced in church and Catholic circles of interwar Poland, which often involved issues presented in this article.
