Summary: | This paper analyzes legal regulation of exercising and protection of the freedom of religion in Bulgaria, Romania and Greece. These three countries have been selected, because in these countries there is the dominant influence of Orthodox religion and because they are members of the European Union at the same time. In this sense, they represent countries with similar legal traditions regarding the exercising and protection of the freedom of religion, as well as, to a certain extent, the legal position of churches and religious communities. It is precisely why in this area normative solutions and case-law in these countries are presented, while certain cases related to the protection of the freedom of religion are analyzed from the perspective of practice of the European court of human rights. |
