Secularism and Freedom of Religion in Italy: Religious Symbols in the Public Space: ICLARS Series on Law and Religion

Autor Maria Cristina Ivaldi
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 feb 2025
The display of religious symbols in the public space has been the subject of much debate. This book provides an overview of the presence of religious symbols in Italian public institutions from a legal standpoint.
The situation is analysed from the perspective of the principles of laicità/secularism, as defined by the Constitutional Court, and freedom of religion. It is argued that while the display of religious symbols in public institutions has been widely investigated doctrinally, the wearing of religious symbols in Italy has generally been neglected. Key cases are examined in light of national jurisprudence as well as intervention by the European Court of Human Rights and relevant judgments from foreign courts regarding this issue. Finally, the work considers the presence of religious symbols that transcend national borders, as in the case of arts, sport and advertising. A comparison is made with the French system which takes a very different approach. The book outlines possible ways forward in light of the growing interculturality of European societies.
It will be a valuable resource for academics, researchers and policy-makers working in the areas of law and religion, and comparative law.
