Sekulic, Branko (2020): BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE OPPRESSOR: GLORIFICATION OF CRIME AND CONTEMPT FOR VICTIMS AS THE ULTIMATE CHALLENGE TO CHRISTIANITY IN POST-YUGOSLAV SOCIETIES. In: Occasional Papers on Religion in Eastern Europe, Bd. 40, Nr. 5: S. 52-68

Abstract

The glorification of one's own crimes and the contempt for victims of others is a common denominator of sociopolitical existence in post-Yugoslavian societies. Religious institutions, primarily the Serbian Orthodox Church and the Catholic Church in Croatia and in Bosnia and Herzegovina, have contributed to the creation of such an atmosphere in their respective areas. Dealing with this type of aberration is their primary contemporary challenge.
