Belgium's religion funding model under constitutional pressure

Original: Aktive #Neutralität unter Druck. Das Modell der #Religion ​s- und Weltanschauungsfinanzierung in #Belgien im Spannungsfe

A German-language legal commentary argues that Belgium's system of financing recognised religions and philosophical worldviews is under strain. The analysis examines tensions between the state's constitutional duty of active neutrality and case law of the European Court of Human Rights, raising questions about whether the long-standing funding model can survive scrutiny.

Why now: Ongoing debate over church-state financing and European human rights court rulings is drawing legal attention.
