Item type:Publication, Interreligious Dialogue and Cooperation between Faculties of Theology in Macedonia(Regensburg: Verlag Friedrich Pustet, 2026); ; Schön, DietmarThe theoretical framework for this research draws upon peace-building literature that emphasizes the role of educational institutions in transforming post-conflict societies. Religious educational institutions occupy a distinctive position in this context, as they simultaneously preserve theological traditions while potentially serving as bridges between communities. The initiatives examined in this study represent what might be termed “educational diplomacy,” wherein academic exchange becomes a vehicle for broader social reconciliation. Previous research has demonstrated that interventions targeting future religious leaders can have multiplier effects throughout communities, yet few studies have longitudinally examined the implementation and sustainability of such programs in the post-conflict countries. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Faith and Spiritual Renewal in Secular North Macedonia: The Pastoral Role of the Macedonian Orthodox Church - The Archbishopric of Ohrid in a Pluralistic Society(Occasional Papers on Religion in Eastern Europe, 2025-03-01)This article explores the relationship between faith and social dynamics in secular North Macedonia, with a focus on the Macedonian Orthodox Church-Archbishopric of Ohrid’s role in shaping spiritual values, social ethics and individual transformation. Although Republic of North Macedonia is a secular state, the Church remains a vital institution, an essential spiritual presence, offering spiritual guidance and fostering ethical frameworks that transcend cultural or national affiliations. It highlights how religious beliefs intersect with the country’s diverse cultural landscape, with an emphasis on the Church’s pastoral mission – directed not toward national or cultural constructs, but toward the transformation of individual. This ongoing spiritual influence continues to shape personal and social values in a secular context. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The Thirty-year Activity of the Macedonian Bible Society, With a Special Focus on Modern Translations of the Scripture Into Macedonian Language(Occasional Papers on Religion in Eastern Europe, 2025-03-01); The Macedonian Bible Society was founded in 1993, but its activities began the following year. The translation and printing of biblical texts have been the primary focus of the society's work, and this paper aims to trace its three-decade-long activity through the lens of translations into the Macedonian language. Biblical translations are an integral part of humanity's cultural history, with many factors influencing translation processes over time. It is important to recognize that translation involves two closely intertwined elements: language and cultural context. In Macedonian history, both aspects are deeply connected to biblical translations. This text provides an overview of the history of the Society, with particular emphasis on the characteristics and significance of translations of the Scriptures into modern Macedonian. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Christianity and Islam in the Context of Contemporary Culture: New Perspectives on Dialogue and Mutual Understanding(Faculty of Filosophy, Skopje, 2022)Aneta Jovkovska, Gjoko GjorgjevskiThis research is dedicated to the perspectives of dialogue between two major world religions: Christianity and Islam in the context of contributing to the development of the contemporary world. Mutual respect and understanding expressed through initiatives for constructive dialogue and cooperation can contribute to the consolidation of a culture of peace, to the promotion of social interaction and to the strengthening of the creative potential of society. The focus on the common heritage of both religious traditions, represented by the multitude of insights and archetypes of Abrahamic origin, is the starting point for progress in the dialogue. Regarding this, the need arises to reform educational programs at all levels in education by introducing more religious-ethical content that will convey the message of fruitful inter- religious dialogue between different social groups, in order to strengthen and promote social cohesion and to create a common dimension of cultural and spiritual progress. In the proper setting of the teaching process, students can feel that fully belong to the competence of action and change, no matter how beginner it may seem at their age. Thus peace-pedagogical stimuli receive a new emphasis that extends to caring for the created world. Justice is understood as a decisive condition for peace and preservation of the created world. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Education as a Universal Human Value(Faculty of Philosophy, Skopje, 2021)Aneta JovkovskaThe subject of this study is education analyzed as a universal human value. The relevance of the topic is determined by the special place and the role of education in society and the equally important role of values as social regulators. Education is necessary for the social and personal development ofthestudents. It enables education of the individual in his personal interest, but also in the interest of society and the state. Nowadays, the recognition of education as a universal value is confirmed by the constitution in most countries in the world as a human right to education. Its implementation is ensured by the educational systems that exist in a particular country, but they differ in the principles of the organization. However, the initial conceptual positions of education are not always formulated taking into account axiological characteristics. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, The Battle of Identity: The Abolition of the Archbishopric of Ohrid and the surrounding socio-political circumstances in the Ottoman Empire(Институт за национална историја - Скопје, 2020)Gjorgjevski, Gjokoabolition of the Archbishopric of Ohrid on May 17, 1767 is an act that had a deep impact on the ecclesiastical history of the Balkans. This happened during the Ottoman rule in Macedonia, supported by the Sublime Porte. Since the 14th century the Archbishopric was territorially and administratively under the Sublime Porte, which was not interfering with the ecclesiastical independence, and also provided a range of benefits to the development of local medieval written tradition (especially by literary centres), the continued improvement of church services in Slavic language and the development in other spheres of the cultural and spiritual life. The relationship between the Archbishopric and the Porte got worse in the late 17th or early 18th century, when the Ottoman Empire got weak, and when phanariotes and the Patriarchate of Constantinople strengthened their status in the Empire. The phanariotes improved their financial power and became leaders in trade on the Balkans, in Russia and Europe, and so they acquired a range of different privileges, which made them extremely influential. A serious propaganda was conducted by them against the Archbishopric of Ohrid, one that produced numerous replacements of archbishops, and finally, they succeeded to achieve their goal – the abolition of the Ohrid Archbishopric.
