Religion and State – From separation to cooperation?
Proceedings of the Special Workshop "Legal-philosophical reflections for a de-secularized world" held at the 23th World Congress of the International Association for Philosophy of Law and So
Religion is increasingly a social and political factor in post-modern societies nowadays and the question of the role of religion in the public sphere is more and more brought to the fore: a challenge to legal philosophers. Should religion be only a private affair, or should the public dimension of religion be more acknowledged? Do we have to interpret the freedom of religion and the separation of church and state in a strict (laïcist) sense, or do we have to allow for a more benevolent relation between religion and the state? This collection of essays explores these questions in various and new ways.
