THE INFLUENCE OF THE RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIES ON THE CIVIL INSTITUTIONS AND POLITICS IN THE REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA

This work is a continuation of the previous research about the Macedonian model of secularism supported by the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in the Republic of Macedonia. Consequently to the first policy brief titled "Political parties and the boundaries of secularism in Republic of Macedonia" which sheds light on the influence of the state and the political parties over the work of the religious communities, the goal of this work is to closely define the reverse process - the influence of the religious communities on the civil institutions and politics in Republic of Macedonia.
