RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH DURING THE PERIOD 1917 REVOLUTION

Theoretical and practical aspects of the problem of state-church relations are now increasingly attracting public attention. In this regard, one of the most important tasks is to study the historical experience of the relationship between the state, the Church and believers, which allows us to use the experience of the past in the formation of a modern model of church-state relations. The study of the experience of self-determination of the Orthodox Church on the issue of relations with the state during the revolution of 1917 is currently of considerable scientific and practical interest.
