The aim of my paper is to : analyze the phenomenon of Radio Maryja (Radio Virgin Mary), present arguments for classifying the movement around it as he Polish Religious Right, compare it to the American Religious Right, and examine the processes which led to the creation of both movements. The comparison of activities, agendas, rhetoric, structures, and methods used by the Polish and American Religious Right’s leaders indicates that, despite denominational and historical differences, both movements share many characteristics. Therefore, it is interesting to place the analysis of the processes that led to their creation in a broader sociological perspective.
