Description

Cultural and religious diversity in Europe is, by its very nature, a dynamic ever-evolving reality. CUREDI is, and for the foreseeable future will remain, a work in progress. In the medium term, the aim is to cover as systematically as possible the most recurrent issues as they arise in the daily practice of domestic courts of different countries.

But at this stage already, we trust that CUREDI provides grounded and valuable analyses on a number of highly relevant topics which are symptomatic of the difficulty of doing justice in situations where different cultural and/or religious frames of reference meet/clash/interact.

As a collective project – relying on a network of academic partners and contributors across Europe to contribute case law, legislation and related commentaries, within their sphere of expertise – the project is now at a stage where we have gathered a sufficiently critical mass of cases which reflect recurring, connected issues in jurisdictions across Europe. Many of these cases are translated into English for the first time which gives CUREDI an unprecedented position among the digital resources already available. What emerges is a diversity of approaches that present a rich sample of judicial reactions to cultural and religious diversity. As such, the CUREDI database provides a unique source of information that can be of great interest to decision makers, legal practitioners, stakeholders as well as academics.

Whilst new cases and reports are published continuously, we also welcome suggestions from users. Should you find a judgment or ruling you think would be relevant for CUREDI, you can let us know. It will be highly appreciated on our side and will contribute to the formula of work in progress.
