The author makes a comparative analysis of the relationship between the state and the religious communities in Albania and other former communist countries. The analysis is concentrated especially during the transitional period between communism and democracy. Faced with the problems of the transition, the need for a new cooperation from the state away from the old atheist mentality is discussed, with the final conclusion that better support from the state is needed to keep the religious communities independent from outside influences.
