Summary/Abstract: During the communist regime, the neo-Protestant press, like any publication printed in that era, was used as a platform for the communist regime. One such case was the death of Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin (March 5, 1953), when, in parallel to religious and doctrinal articles, space was allocated to homage articles to the deceased, using epithets that were moreand more laudatory. The present article is an analysis of the three neo-Protestant periodicals in existence at the time, and how Stalin's death was reflected in their pages, in order to demonstrate the politicization of the church press at the time.
