As Rodismus (rare dt. Rodnowerei from Russ. Родноверие / Rodnoverie and Polish. Rodzima Wiara or Rodzimowierstwo and ukr. Рідянство / Ridjanstvo or Рідновірство / Ridnovirstvo ) or Slavic neo-paganism refers to contemporary efforts to revive the pre-Christian ethnic religion of the Slavs , citing on culture and mythology . It was and is shaped by aspects of pantheism , henotheism and polytheism .

In Poland , where Neo-Pagan movements found their first followers at the end of the 18th century, Rodism has been an officially recognized religious community since 1995. In Russia , however, Ynglism emerged at the end of the 20th century .
