The Center for the Study of Law and Religion at Emory University (CSLR) is an interdisciplinary, interreligious, and international community of scholars devoted to exploring the religious dimensions of law and the legal dimensions of religion. Studying ideas, institutions, and practices, we propose that religion inspires law toward ritual and justice, while law undergirds religion through order and organization.
Bringing the wisdom of religious traditions into deeper conversation with law, public policy, the humanities, and the social sciences, we situate American debates about law and religion within an emerging global conversation while engaging with the many religious traditions of the globe.
