LECTURE

The project of a democratic, liberal, open and pluralistic society is an ambitious and at the same time difficult undertaking, whose implementation in practice is accompanied by conflicts of interests and values. Opinions differ widely on the degree of openness and respect due to diverse lifestyles and philosophical or religious beliefs, as illustrated by examples from legal practice across the EU, where not only courts but also administrations and legislatures are confronted with diversity issues. With a little creativity, reasonable solutions can be found, which, however, differ depending on the constitutional framework of the respective country.
