TY - GEN TI - FAMILY AND RELIGIOUS VALUES AU - Radulovic, Makedonka PY - 2019 PB - Goce Delcev University LA - eng AB - Religion is an integral part of the life of believers. In our society religion is intertwined with tradition, family values and cultural heritage. The research shows that most of the citizens in the Republic of Macedonia define themselves as believers (91%), but if we go into a detailed analysis, we will see that they are traditional believers without expert knowledge in the field of religion, but do not fully adhere to religious principles and practices. Understanding the religion among the traditional believers comes down to respecting the tradition and religious rituals and generosity rituals, nurtured with ages. After the Republic of Macedonia declared its independence, a long period of revitalization of religion began, that was characterized by a change in the religious system, the secularization of religion, the rapprochement of the political and religious elite, the attempts to introduce religious education.
