- Book Synopsis
- This volume explores the interaction between law and religion in the Nordic region and Germany in the post-World War II period. It examines how religion has been conceptualized and managed within secular law and pays particular attention to the growing influence of international law on the regulation of majority and minorty religion. The volume investigates different ways of understanding the secularity of law, and it analyzes the relationship between conceptions of secularity within law and theology in the region. Finally, it also discusses renegotiations of theological positions with regard to the law of the land and tendencies towards re-confessionalization of law governing religion.
