The objective of the teaching of "European ecclesiastical law" is to allow the student of the Law Curriculum (LMG-01) to acquire knowledge and the ability to understand the discipline of the religious phenomenon in Europe, with particular regard to the protection of freedom of religion and beliefs. As a result of the study of the subject, the student will be able to orient himself in the interaction between the different sources of EU law on the religious phenomenon, the supranational regulation on the protection of religious freedom (with specific regard to the European Convention on Human Rights) and the legal regulations on ecclesiastical matters of the main European states, expressive of the different historical and legal traditions of each national system; evaluating and arguing independently the possible legal solutions of the main problems regarding individual and collective religious freedom linked to the processes of European integration, also in light of the fundamental contribution provided by the evolution of the case law of both the Court of Justice of the European Union and the European Court of Human Rights on the protection of religious freedom and beliefs.
