Sažetak
In the article the author presents the socio-cultural conditions
in the period of the communist rule, from May 1945 to 1952,
analyzing its influence on the pastoral work. Using the historicalevaluation
ways, he analyzes several bishops’ letters from that
dark period, on the basis of which he weighs the relationship
between the former state’s public administration and the Church.
In the first part he analyzes the Pastoral Letter from 1945, and in
the second part he refers to the instructions of the arch/bishops
Bonifačić and Stepinac regarding the Communist Party marriage
law from 1946. In the third part he presents the bishop’s letter to
the president Tito, showing the relationship of government to the
church and the people. Although the author suggests a certain
connection between the communist and today’s social structure,
he deduces a deeper theological-pastoral reference.
