Abstract

This study aims to point out the shortcomings of international legislation on the use of religious rights and was conceived as a wake-up call to the most relevant institutions for the defense of human rights, in favor of a fair, globalized legal system accessible to all vulnerable minorities, specifically people and their theological convictions, including respect in the absence of it. It describes in a coherent and critical way those international norms related to religious freedoms, in their drafting, practice and execution; determining the degree of responsibility of each actor, whether it"™s from State or society, in the use of religious rights; proposing new ways to improve freedom of religion in regions with historically poor human rights records.
