La tutela dei beni culturali di interesse religioso tra Costituzione e convenzioni con le confessioni religiose

A key insight from this study is that the concept of 'religious reasons' extends beyond traditional 'cult reasons,' thereby limiting the State's authority over religiously significant cultural goods more than previously recognized. The research examines the interplay between Italian constitutional principles and international conventions, particularly with the Catholic Church, to explore how these dynamics influence the preservation and modification of heritage sites like Modena's Cathedral, Torre Civica, and Piazza Grande. It argues that the principle of laicity should guide the distribution of competences in such cases, using a leading example of liturgical modifications to illustrate this point. The study employs a legal and procedural analysis, focusing on the module of agreements between public authorities and religious organizations.
