Relationship between stereotyping and the place of religion in the public sphere

Abstract

This essay provides some insights and poses some questions about the link between the role of religions in the public sphere and negative stereotyping. With a specific interest in the legal dimension of this role, we would like to see if religion produces more or less stereotyping and prejudice than any other system. We do not regard the topic in any other sense, for example, the possible public role of religions in maintaining civil peace and reducing prejudice in the public space.
