Aufbruch II (2007)

In 2007 the cross-sectional study was extended to a longitudinal study. In addition, the number of countries included in the study was increased from 10 to 14.
With a further developed questionnaire, the religious sociological study of 1997 was repeated in order to observe the development of the socio-religious dimension in the culture of the young post-communist reformist states in the last decade. The results were published.

How did the Churches position themselves in the communist era?
How do they reposition themselves after the change?
