Manifestation of religious beliefs in the public sphere

2021-10-27

The Central European Professors’ Network, consisting of four research groups, launched its activities on 1 January 2021 to conduct research on a great variety of issues with regard to seven Central European countries (Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic, Croatia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia). The Professors’ Network organises events with the primary aim to draw attention of the European citizens to the topics which are important and significant in connection with the future of Europe, in particular of Central Europe.

 

One of the research groups dealt with the normative aspect of the possibility for manifesting beliefs through religious symbols in the European countries concerned. Furthermore, the group focused on the comparative legal analysis of the impact of the presence of religious symbols in public spaces.

 

The conference on the above issue will also function as a book launch of the book „Religious Symbols in the Public Sphere – Analysis on Certain Central European Countries” written by the members of the research group. Therefore, besides the conference presentations, the comparative legal book will also be presented as the main achievement of the research team. This book is a gap-filling contribution in the field of comparative constitutional law and a publication which sheds light on the most important Central European aspects of the issue.

 

The main organisers of the event are the Ferenc Mádl Institute of Comparative Law, the Hungarian Association for Comparative Law and the Central-European Association for Comparative Law.
