Abstract

Glavni cilj ovog rada jeste da ponudi analizu načela svetovnosti prema Ustavu iz 2006, i, u okviru toga, autor nudi argumente u prilog tezi da sadašnji Ustav prihvata model stroge odvojenosti države i crkve. Rad takođe posvećuje pažnju pitanjima od velikog značaja za državno-crkvene odnose: finansiranju crkava i verskih zajednica iz budžeta, verskim obredima u državnim organima i institucijama, te ulozi tradicionalnih crkava i verskih zajednica u sistemu javnog obrazovanja, i daje mišljenje o njihovoj ustavnosti u ustavnom sistemu Republike Srbije.
