Faculty of Theology Jürgen Habermas (Aarhus University 14-16 May 2008)

This research theme focuses on Judaism, Christianity and Islam, and the relationship between the respective sacred texts and legal norms.

In connection with the publication of a major publication with contributions from all three thematic groups, an event was held on 24 April 2009 to mark the completion of the research priority area.
