Abstract

The phenomenon of secularization in Western societies coincides with a growing public presence of intense religious phenomenon. The social dimension of the right of religious freedom in increasingly pluralistic societies is a true test of authenticity in contemporary democracies and their legal systems. The protection and promotion of religious pluralism by public authorities is one of the main challenges to the laws of our democratic states. States whose legal systems are presented as guarantors of freedom and equality of its citizens and the justice of their relations.
