| description | The article shows the relationship between the state and the Orthodox Church during the 1917 revolution and the civil war. The reasons for the transformation of politics in relation to the most influential confessional structure are analyzed. One of the vectors of policy towards the Orthodox Church was a large-scale and uncompromising struggle within the framework of atheistic propaganda and agitation. The geographical area chosen is the national subject of the Russian state, Dagestan as a multi-ethnic and multi-confessional region. The author points out that the authorities do not have a clear line on the religious issue. Based on the analysis of specific factual examples, it is concluded that the postponement of the implementation of some decrees of the Council of People’s Commissars on religious issues of the period 1917–1919 contributed to the peculiarities of the establishment of Soviet power in regions where the Muslim population predominated. This situation was also associated with a difficult situation related to the Vladikavkaz Diocese. The article uses a wide range of unpublished archival documents extracted from both central and regional archives. |
