The third issue of "Christianity-World-Politics" contains three texts.

The article "Jewish Dimension of Christianity" by Jan Grosfeld focuses on the role of Hebrew tradition within Christian religion as a whole. By stressing the important difference between Jewish and Christian tradition on one side, and Islam and "natural religions" on the other, the author notices that the awareness of Jewish roots in Christianity secures Christians from the instrumetalization of its belief, and can provide a new impetus to the ecumenical movement.

"On the Relation between the Form of Governance and Civil Society" by Antoni Z. Kamiński analyses the phenomenon of civil society, and its importance in the process of political transformation in Poland.

"Politics-eschatology-ethics" by Piotr Mazurkiewicz concentrates on the influence of religion (western Christianity) on Polish "peaceful revolution" in 1989.
