More DescriptionEnglish summary: Was there a scope for acting for churches in the time of the National Socialist regime? How was it used? And when were they forced to adapt? The essays, including several examples from the evangelic church in Bavaria, deal with the theological attitude of ecclesiastical personnel, actions taken by bishops and the helpers in networks of leading figures in church. The direct action of parishes are compared and discussed. A big picture of the freedom and borders in churchly behaviour during the NS-regime is given. Additionally, the volume deals with the role of church during the National Socialist years and reconstructs the church historical development of remembrance since the end of the Second World War. German text. German description: Gab es Spielraume fur das Handeln der Kirchen und ihrer Vertreter in der Zeit der nationalsozialistischen Herrschaft' Wie wurden diese genutzt' Und wo kam es ohne Zwang zu Anpassungen' Am Beispiel der evangelischen Kirche Bayerns widmen sich die Beitrage den theologischen Einstellungen kirchlicher Protagonisten, dem bischoflichen Handeln sowie den Helfern und Helfershelfern in den Netzwerken des kirchlichen Leitungspersonals und vergleichen unterschiedliche Handlungsvarianten einzelner Kirchengemeinden. So entsteht ein Gesamtbild der Freiraume und Grenzen kirchlichen Verhaltens wahrend der NS-Zeit. Im Anschluss wendet sich der Band dem Umgang der Kirche mit der eigenen Rolle im Nationalsozialismus zu und rekonstruiert die kirchengeschichtliche Erinnerungsentwicklung seit Kriegsende.
