Rețeaua informativă a Securității din învățământul teologic la sfârșitul anilor ’70 și începutul anilor ’80
The Intelligence Network of the Securitate in Theological Schools in the Late ‘70s and Early ‘80s

Summary/Abstract: The membership of the Romanian Orthodox Church in the World Council of Churches as of 1961 favoured the articulation of an ecclesiastical diplomacy that often accompanied Nicolae Ceausescu’s maverick foreign policy. This church diplomacy also integrated priest-teachers that had been political detainees. Late in the ‘70s, there occurred a rise in the number of those who refused to collaborate with the communist regime. Father Gheorghe Calciu-Dumitreasa, imprisoned between 1979 and 1984, and the priests who taught at the Theological Institute of Alba Iulia were among the opponents of the regime that the Securitate kept under scrutiny and incriminated.
