Abstract

Abstract:In the Orthodox commonwealth, faith has been an important variable of national identity since the Balkan national movements of the nineteenth century. Part of the literature highlights how local Churches stood by and assisted self-determination efforts. Later, during the Cold War, political and national aspirations were transferred via the Church and immigrant institutions into North America. More precisely, Greek-, Bulgarian-, and Slav-Macedonian communities, with the support of their respective Churches, created an environment of antagonism regarding the ownership of the geographic area of Macedonia. In the aftermath of World War II, the aforementioned diasporas mobilized to defend their political ambitions and mother Churches and their eparchies coordinated their efforts to exert influence on immigrants originating from all three parts of Macedonia and to increase support for their national claims among the US and Canadian publics.

东正教和北美的马其顿问题:宗教、侨民和民族政治(1957-1989)
摘要:自19世纪巴尔干民族运动以来,在东正教联邦,信仰一直是国家认同的重要变量。部分文献强调了当地教会如何支持和协助自决努力。后来,在冷战期间,政治和民族愿望通过教会和移民机构转移到北美。更确切地说,希腊、保加利亚和斯拉夫马其顿社区在各自教会的支持下,在马其顿地理区域的所有权问题上创造了一种对立的环境。第二次世界大战结束后,上述流散者动员起来捍卫他们的政治野心,母教会及其牧师协调努力,对来自马其顿三个地区的移民施加影响,并在美国和加拿大公众中增加对他们国家主张的支持。
