Stepinac

More about the book

Alojzije Stepinac, the Cardinal Archbishop of Zagreb, navigated tumultuous political landscapes during his leadership of the Catholic Church in Croatia, particularly during World War II and the rise of Communist rule. Robin Harris utilizes newly uncovered Secret Police files to shed light on Stepinac's complex legacy, marked by accusations of complicity in wartime atrocities and his efforts to inspire Catholic resistance against Communist persecution. The book aims to provide an objective assessment of Stepinac's life and contributions, including his eventual beatification by Pope John Paul II.
