The Catholic Church and its influence on the transition and subsequent consolidation of democracy

(anglicky) The bachelor thesis will deal with comparison of countries that have undergone transitions and influence of the Catholic Church there is a fairly strong. In particular, it will be about Poland and Chile. In the introduction I tried to cover the position of the Church in these states for the duration of the undemocratic regime (if it stood on the side of the regime, covert opposition, or whether they acted directly against the regime). Another part will deal whit what the relationship with the Church undemocratic regimes sought. Whether enforce repression, co- optation, or some form of "tacit agreement". In conclusion and in response to previous questions, I will try to answer the question whether the Catholic Church was in those countries open to cooperation and advocated more confrontational stance, and what was this attitude affect the form, course and outcome of transition, and as reflected in future consolidation of democracy
