Based on new archival materials, this book provides an extensive review of the most significant and topical problems in the relationships between the Russian Orthodox Church and the state. It touches upon the reform of the supreme church authorities at the beginning of the XXth century, notably, the attitude of the episcopate of the Russian Orthodox Church to the patriarchate as an institute, and to the prospect of its reconstruction in Russia; search of the ways of existence by the Primate-elect of the Russian Orthodox Church, Patriarch Tikhon (1917-1925) with the state authorities who rejected God, as well as his Orthodox understanding of tragic events of the Revolution and the Civil war; the splits inside the church in the 1920-1930s.
