Summary:

"This is a collection of articles previously published in St Vladimir's Quarterly on the topic of autocephaly, i.e., the status of an ecclesiastically independent or "self-headed" local church. The Russian Metropolia in America was granted autocephaly by her "mother church," i.e., the Church of Russia, in 1970, and was renamed the Orthodox Church in America. This provoked a "meaningful storm," and the articles in this volume help to elucidate these specific events and their meaning, as well as to place the autocephaly of the OCA (Orthodox Church in America) in the broader context of the history, theology, ecclesiology, and canonical tradition of the Orthodox Church"-- Provided by publisher.
