【文化斗争】
讽刺报刊《喧声》的一幅政治漫画描绘当时文化斗争的情况，图中两人分别为教宗（右）与俾斯麦。教宗：「无可否认，最后此举让我不愉快，但我没有在这次斗争中输掉；我还有一步非常漂亮的秘招。」俾斯麦：「这也将是最后一步，然后你会在几个回合内被将死──至少在德国。」
文化斗争（Kulturkampf）是指普鲁士王国与罗马天主教会在1870年代的政治角力。 当时普鲁士王国首相卑斯麦于1871年到1878年所颁布的政策，旨在减少罗马天主教会对普鲁士的影响和权力。该政策最终失败告吹。
==历史==
俾斯麦作为坚定的新教徒，从未完全相信罗马天主教徒对德意志帝国的忠诚度。此前，教宗无误论在第一次梵蒂冈大公会议中由教宗庇护九世正式颁布为天主教教义，使得德国天主教徒内部产生分裂，也引来的普鲁士政府的干涉。德国政府认为罗马天主教会在德国东方激起波兰民族主义情绪。德国天主教徒支持教廷的行为也使俾斯麦对天主教徒产生了怀疑。天主教徒此前在 1870 年成立了德国中央党，不信任新教为主体的普鲁士在德国内的主导地位，也经常反对俾斯麦的政策。
由1871年至1876年，普鲁士政府颁布了一系列政策，旨在削弱天主教会的势力。政策包括对神职人员的教育背景提出要求并进行考核、禁止耶稣会的工作、将教育和婚姻世俗化（即取消教会主导的制度）等。一部分没有遵守此些政策的天主教神父和主教被驱逐出境或监禁。但文化斗争反而使天主教徒更加团结。在 1874 年的选举中，中央党的得票数反而增加了一倍。至1870年代后期，俾斯麦开始倾向于保守主义和贸易保护主义而非自由主义，并逐渐结束了文化斗争、修改了部分针对天主教会的法律。
有学者认为，文化斗争造就了德国中央党，并使其成为了此后数十年在德国政坛上不可轻视的势力。甚至二战后的德国基督教民主联盟也深受德国中央党影响。
