THE CONTRIBUTION OF RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIES IN PROMOTING TOLERANCE IN THE REPUBLIC OF NORTH MACEDONIA

Summary/Abstract: In our day we observe the need for the contribution of religious communities in promoting coexistence between different ethnicity, cultures, and beliefs. Especially in modern societies which underpin multi-culturalism, the need to build understanding is achieved through the process of tolerance and dialogue between civilizations. This work has been undertaken to achieve two important goals: the process of interreligious dialogue promoted by religious communities and its interrelation with politics with the aim of reaching a constructive debate between them and not the divisive debate. The daily use of the terms "tolerance, harmony or interethnic and interfaith coexistence" is used more and more by civil society but also by politicians, but unfortunately, nothing is said about the theoretical and practical aspect of this phenomenon. Based on case studies, this paper tries to fill a symbolic space in this aspect.
