Of particular note are the laws and policies that were employed by the state in order to destroy religion in general, and Catholicism in particular. The text also explores the way that the strong tradition of Polish culture prepared the populace to be uniquely resistant to attempts to destroy its Christian religious life. It is ultimately, a story of the triumph of the people over the state.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"McFarland \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47581640261783,"sku":"9780786459049","price":5095.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780786459049.webp?v=1774920576","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/church-and-state-in-communist-poland-a-history-1944-1989-9780786459049","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
