| Popis | First, the Czech Constitutional Court rejected the complaint of Mr Duka, a Czech catholic archbishop and cardinal who felt offended in his religious feelings by a controversial performance staged in Brno. Second, in Bouton v France, the ECtHR ruled in favour of Ms Bouton who was criminally sanctioned for exposing her breasts in a Paris church as part of an activist action. In this blogpost, I argue that although both cases ended well, i.e. were decided in favour of freedom of expression of artists and activists, both courts erred in their assessment of the role of religion and religious sentiment in European secular democracies. |
