Summary/Abstract: The complex changes entailed by the post communist transition in Romania had a special impact on the orthodox education of the young people. In spite of the fact that they were confronted to numerous serious social, economic and cultural problems and to an increasing number of religious alternatives, the Romanian young people did not quit the orthodox faith. On the contrary, the religious effervescence is bigger than in other European countries. Religious education for the young people played an important role in this respect.
