Course
Course 15 credits • CTRR17
Are you curious about how law and religion have shaped societies throughout history? How Judaism, Christianity, and Islam relate to law? Whether religious norms are merely divinely sanctioned laws or are in essence distinct from secular law? What happens when religious and secular law come into conflict?
Across four modules, you will explore the evolution of religious legal traditions, examine how law and religion interact in different spaces like homes, public squares and courts, and analyze contemporary issues that raise questions related to law and religion, for example with respect to freedom of expression or religion. The course likely even includes a field trip abroad, to Sarajevo, allowing you to explore the dynamic relationship between law and religion firsthand.
