Concordat Between the Holy See and Slovak Republic
Journal Title: Kościół i Prawo - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The relationships between Church and State are generally more precisely defined by bilateral international agreements, usually called “concordats”. These are normative acts whose purpose is to stabilize the relationships between the Church and the State. The independence and autonomy of the Church and the State, confirmed by the individual points of the concordat, are a necessary precondition for the true good of man, to which such an agreement is targeted. The challenges put before us these days require the cooperation of the Church and the State, while the concordat should serve and support such cooperation. This article presents the concordat concluded between the Holy See and the Slovak Republic, its genesis and content compared to other concordats and partial agreements concluded between the Slovak Republic and the Holy See.
