The course aims to provide a solid knowledge of the religious phenomenology in Italy; the rules that govern it; the powers of institutions and local authorities; the territorial legal forms with which confessions are structured; the activities they perform; the possible individual conflicts generated by the belonging of faith. The objective is to form a jurist able to confront with the religious problems on territorial safety; to develop actions to combat illegal conduct with a religious background, and to promote strategies to defuse the socio-cultural causes of religious conflict/illegality. All this with respect of religious freedom and other fundamental rights guaranteed by Western legal systems.
