Law and Religion Scholars Network

Background and Objectives

Controversies surrounding the wearing of Islamic dress, Catholic adoption agencies, and the status of Sharia underscore the growing topicality and importance of law and religion. It is not surprising therefore that the last twenty years has seen the gradual development of law and religion as an area of academic study.

The Law and Religion Scholars Network is designed to bring together for the first time academics who are interested in all areas of law and religion: national and international law affecting religion and religious law.

The Network, an initiative of the Centre for Law and Religion at Cardiff Law School, will allow those interested in the field to share experiences and ideas, to build links in relation to both research and teaching and to reflect upon how law and religion can be promoted as a mainstream legal discipline.
