More information on the project: https://www.endoflaw.org

The research project will conduct an interdisciplinary study of the secularisation of the Christian eschatological idea of an end to law. The development of modern thought shows that the idea that law could end has not only been central to important strands of Christian theology. This apocalyptic view of law as something finite has also become secularized in modern political visions, such as anarchist, conservative, Marxist, and neoliberal thought, through the hope for an end or radical limitation of law.Yet, the question of the end of law is a curious blind spot in legal and theological thought; a sort of taboo functioning as a repressed other to jurisprudence and religion. By inquiring into the secularization of the end of law, our project probes the historical development of the idea of the end of law and what it implies. 

RELIGION AND SOCIETY IN POLAND

Datum: 12 April
Tid: 10.15-12.00
Plats: Zoom

At this seminar CRS guest researcher Dawid Bunikowski will present a paper on Religion and society in contemporary Poland. The paper aims to provide a socio-legal-political-philosophical analysis of religion in Poland. It focuses on the phenomenon of religion in both society and politics in Poland, with a particular emphasis on the role of the Catholic church and the Polish model of state-church relations.

In this paper, the practical focus is not only on the impact of religion on the constitutional crisis in Poland (2015-), but also it refers to the recent problems of abortion debates and of LGBT rights in this country. It aims to show the ways religion influences such phenomena, but also highlight the complexities within a society which is perceived as quite morally conservative and religious, but is also very divided, also in the field of making Polish restrictive abortion law even stricter (near absolute ban since January 27th, 2021).  

Comments by Ass. Prof Lise Eriksson (sociology of religion, Uppsala University)
