Seven Decades from the Signing of the Concordat between the Romanian State and the Holy See - The State of Vatican (1927)

Summary/Abstract: Seven Decades from the Signing of the Concordat between the Romanian State and the Holy See - The State of Vatican (1927). The study, made up of two parts, deals with the internal and international context in which they signed the Concordat between the Romanian State and the Holy See, seven decades after that event. Following the Great Union of 1918, Romania found herself in the position to settle her relationships with the Holy See in order to decide the status of the Greek-Catholic and of the Roman-Catholic Churches within the framework of the unitary Romanian national state. Begun in 1921, the negotiations between the Romanian Government and Vatican were concluded in 1917 in a final document, discussed in the Senate and the Deputies' Assembly during 1929 and passed in the same year. With the Concordat, the Romanian Kingdom brought to conclusion the efforts to officially settle the rights and duties of all the cults recognized by the Romanian state. The Concordat was considered to be a means of regulating the relationships between State and Church, acknowledging the Romanian Greek-Catholic Church as a historical cult.
