DEANERY OF KONAVLE IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE 20TH CENTURY
Jakša RAGUŽ
Sažetak
During the period of the second (communistic) Yugoslavia traditionally strong and socially deeply rooted Catholic Church in the region of Konavle (near Dubrovnik) faced a forced political atheism. In spite of proscriptions of priests, clergy and believers, and despite of material losses and decrease of social influence, Church in Konavle never was diminished. Moreover, during the years immediately after the World War II in some ways Church became meaning of resistance towards imposition of communist social order. Consequently, at the end of communist era 90 % of Konavle population were declared Catholics, and Church flourished in this community. However, one can notice consequences of communist regime because some forms of popular piety and devotion faded away.
