La inspiración confesional de la ley de libertad religiosa española: laicidad de colaboración

Abstract

In this paper, we try to show that the existing Spanish secular model should be defined in terms of collaboration. Religious freedom is interpreted by Spanish judges in a Catholic framework, as an implementation of the Second Vatican Council's Declarations and Constitutions. In this sense, the Catholic Church has managed to impose its authority through privileged agreements with the Spanish State. Keywords: religious freedom, secularism, Spain, religious law.
