Contractual Model for the Participation of Churches in the Public Sphere in the Czech Republic
The article focuses on the model of legal regulation of relations between the church (churches) and the state in the Czech Republic. It is a specific model of agreement that regulates the activities of churches and religious societies in the public sphere (the army, healthcare, prisons, the police, etc.). The Czech model differs from the models commonly used in neighbouring countries. The Czech Republic has not yet ratified a concordat (although attempts were made in 2002 and 2024), and churches in a secularized environment are increasingly forced to cooperate and negotiate with the state. Churches thus act more in the dimension of serving society and less as a political force in society.
