From Separation to Communion. Church(es) as a Part of Civil Society

Sažetak
In view of current political and social challenges, the border between church and state, which was defined in the 19th century, should be reflected in a critical way. As a proposal, one could attempt to re-define this relationship by using the concept of civil society.
The political sciences see the church as a part of civil society. The magisterium of the Catholic church and big parts of theology, however, never use this term. In order to better serve its mission, the church with its material and immaterial resources should begin to understand itself as a part of civil society. This requires the church to be transformed into a “public church” and theology into “public theology”, a transformation which will not only help to build a more just society, but will also help the church to fulfil its own mission.
