(Routledge, 2025) Cohen-Almagor, Raphael; Gliszczyńska-Grabias, Aleksandra; Henrard, Kristin; Baranowska, Grażyna; Górski, Marcin; Tourkochoriti, Ioanna; Porat, Iddo; Van der Schyff, Gerhard; Schuz, Rhona; Hacohen, Aviad; Heinig, Hans Michael; Wattier, Stephanie; Sandberg, Russell; Fink, François; Weiler, Joseph; Linzen, Meir; Gliszczyńska-Grabias, Aleksandra; Hacohen, Aviad
This book provides an in-depth, scholarly reflection on the challenges that arise in guaranteeing religious freedom and protection of the rights of religious minorities in law and practice. Currently, the protection of religious minorities constitutes one of the foundations of the international human rights protection systems and is provided for in the constitutions of all democratic states. The volume identifies, analyses, and assesses the legal status of religious freedom and protection of religious minorities, with special focus on Jewish and Muslim minorities in the European and Israeli legal environments. It compares the discourses on the scope and boundaries of religious freedom with the actual treatment of religious freedom in legal regulations, the case law, and in practice by the general society. The book employs the resources of comparative law and national and international law, as well as legal theory. Extensive use is also made of decisions of the international courts, including the European Court of Human Rights and the Court of Justice of the European Union. The book will be a valuable resource for academics, researchers, and policymakers working in the areas of law and religion, international human rights law, comparative constitutional law, and religious studies.

The General Report presented below constitutes a summary of information and conclusions contained in the national reports on Czechia, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia, and is the final output of Grant no. 22320067, entitled Shelter law-making. Legal response to massive migration caused by Russian aggression against Ukraine, co-financed by the Visegrad Fund.
The national reports constitute the basis for the General Report; therefore, references to all sources and data are to be found there.
The main goal of the project was to analyse the legal actions taken and instruments created by the four Visegrad countries (V4) in response to the large-scale and unprecedented influx of people after 24 February 2022, the outbreak of the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation against Ukraine. Above all, we identified the need to compare the actions taken in individual countries in order to distinguish the recurring solutions, identify those that have failed and select those that proved to be the most effective (good practices). In our opinion, the findings of the project will provide a solid basis for more effective legal actions related to the current migration crisis and possible crises in future. The conclusions and recommendations are in the final parts (VI and VII) of the General Report.
