Summary/Abstract: This article proposes an assessment of the role the Romanian Parliament has played in the restructuring of the role of religion in the public sphere during the 2008-2012 legislative term. We seek to understand how much interest the Parliament has shown to it, to what extent Parliamentary drafts have been successful, and in what areas legal action has been taken. A case study of the debates surrounding the Education reform will provide us with insights concerning possible directions for a future readjustment of the public status of religion in Romania.
