The changing (political) reality of Catholic identity in Slovakia
Original language description
Christians in Slovakia constitute approximately 75% of the population, according to the census of 2011. The vast majority are Catholics. Despite Slovakia being labelled a ‘Christian nation,’ Slovak believers are gradually changing their religious self-identification. Based on empirical research conducted via questionnaires, content analysis and in-depth interviews in 2013, 2014 and 2015 we clarify the current trends in self-perception of the religious identity among Slovak Christians. We analyse their attitudes towards specific issues, such as homosexuality, referendum on family of 2015, and separation of the Church and State. The surprising results of the 2016 general elections, which have changed the political map of Slovakia, have also been taken into account. These attitudes are examined against the background of the relationship between conservatism and liberalism. This can be deemed as an antagonistic symbiosis rather than a fruitful dialogue.
