This book investigates the reception of Roman Catholic doctrine within Serbian Orthodox theology from 1958 to the present. Situated in the context of post-Vatican II ecumenical developments, the study offers a comprehensive analysis of how key theological issues–such as papal primacy, uniatism, proselytism, the Filioque, and the Marian dogmas–have been addressed by Serbian theologians. Based on original archival research, including previously unpublished documents from the Orthodox Theological Faculty in Belgrade and reports submitted to the Holy Synod of the Serbian Orthodox Church, the work provides unique insights into the theological and ecclesiological reflections of prominent Orthodox scholars. The book critically engages with the documents of the Second Vatican Council and the Joint International Commission for Theological Dialogue, offering a comparative theological perspective. Beyond its historical and doctrinal relevance, the study contributes to the ongoing ecumenical dialogue by highlighting both convergences and enduring tensions. It also explores the broader sociocultural implications of theological rapprochement, fostering a deeper understanding between traditions rooted in a shared Christian heritage.
