The Development of the Search Movement in the Context of Orthodox Traditions of Honouring Those who Died for the Fatherland

An important element included in the concept of civic-patriotic education 
implemented in the Russian Federation is to preserve the memory of the heroic acts performed by our citizens in hard times of history. In the post-war period a unique volunteer movement like the search movement emerged in the Soviet Union. The article studies the causes of the search as a social «grass-roots» initiative and its evolution. The article determines relevance and importance of search work for our 
country. According to official figures, up to 2,5 million people are currently on the 
list of the «missing in action» during the Great Patriotic War. 
The activities of the search squads are studied in the background of the 
Orthodox traditions of honouring and commemoration of the dead that had been 
held in Russia until 1917. The article states their main stages and determines 
the role and place of the Russian Orthodox Church. It is shown that the 
formation of a single structure lasted for several centuries and was finally formed only at the beginning of the 20th century. The work determines differences in the Orthodox tradition of reverence for fallen warriors and search activity, which is initially, in fact, a phenomenon that arose within the framework 
of the Soviet-atheistic ideology. 
The study of the modern development stage of the search movement and the 
activities of the Russian Orthodox Church in this regard allow the author to talk 
about combining the pre-revolutionary Orthodox practice of honouring and commemorating the fallen soldiers with the traditions and experience gained by the country’s search squads. A vivid proof of this tradition is the multi-million people’s public movement «Immortal Regiment», which is expanding every year and has gone far beyond Russia.
