SPECIFIC TREATMENT OF TRADITIONAL CHURCHES AND RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIES PROVIDED FOR IN THE ACT ON CHURCHES AND RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIES OF THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA

Summary/Abstract: Legal comparison shows that European states provide for a variety of status of religious communities in their legal systems. Such differences, based in valid reasons, are consistent with international law. States use more specified terminology in ordinary law than is used in their respective constitutions in concretizing the perspectives set by their constitutions; this is not discriminatory and is consistent with international law. Differences between traditional churches and religious communities and other religious organizations in information required for registration are based in valid reasons; these differences are not discriminatory and are consistent with international law. Such differences are in accordance with the principle of a secular state.
