Law, Religion, and State in Practice

States and religion are everywhere in our world, but they come together in different ways – and one of the main locations of friction is law. What can scholarship in its various disciplines do to help us understand these frictions? Join us for a discussion in which law, political science, media studies, anthropology, and religious studies are brought into dialogue on religion, state, and law.
