The ENTER/EXIT project explores the legal, social, and cultural dimensions of entering and exiting religious denominations, with a focus on their impact on fundamental rights, religious freedom, and personal identity. It examines three key areas:
1. Entry into Religious Denominations:
Analyzing conversion laws in Abrahamic faiths, the research highlights issues of genuine versus simulated conversion, coercion, and the tension between religious norms and civil rights.
2. Exit from Religious Denominations:
Investigating apostasy and excommunication, it addresses the personal, social, and legal repercussions of leaving a faith, particularly in restrictive religious systems.
3. Protecting Religious Freedom:
The study evaluates legal tools for fostering transparent processes and promoting interreligious dialogue to support pluralism and coexistence.
The project aims to reconcile doctrinal authority with individual freedoms, advancing understanding of religious dynamics in diverse societies.
