| Summary: | The topic of Russian Orthodoxy Resurgent, the role of the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) in the post-Soviet reconstruction of Russia, is very timely and important. The basic argument that the authors make is that the late Patriarch Aleksii II led the ROC to replace Marxism–Leninism as the dominant national idea in Russia. While this overarching argument is a plausible one, much of the book is marred by error, inaccuracy, and unsubstantiated speculation. |
