A landmark work of religious history and sociology, Christians in Contemporary Russia chronicles the enduring presence and resilience of Christian faith under the repressive conditions of the Soviet state. Nikita Struve presents a meticulously researched account of how Orthodox Christians, Catholics, and Protestants navigated persecution, state atheism, and institutional suppression throughout the twentieth century. With scholarly authority and deep moral conviction, the work details the underground church movements, the suffering of clergy and laity alike, and the remarkable persistence of spiritual life behind the Iron Curtain. Struve illustrates how faith became an act of quiet resistance, weaving together testimonies, historical analysis, and theological reflection to paint a vivid portrait of a community defined by both suffering and hope. Essential reading for students of Russian history, religion, and Cold War politics, this account remains a vital document of conscience and witness.
