Popis: The article reveals the changes that took place in the parish administration of the Russian Orthodox Church after the revolutionary events of 1917. It is shown how during the last hundred years within the framework of changes in the state religious policy, the opportunities for the clergy to participate in the management of parishes have changed. State legislative acts regulating the religious sphere and documents adopted by local and bishops' Councils are analysed. The article assesses the attempts to use the experience of Congregationalism in the management of the Orthodox Church in Russia, including at the present historical stage.
