Religion and law (the problem of delimitation)

Author(s)
Abstract
The article is devoted to the complex problem of identifying the origins of the confusion of various social regulators, in particular religious norms and law. The relevance of the issue is emphasized in connection with the formulation of the task of legal protection of traditional values. It is noted that significant interest in the issues of the content and significance of traditional values cannot be resolved in isolation from the problem of the origin of social norms and institutions, culture as a whole. The article is devoted to the complex problem of identifying the origins of the confusion of various social regulators, in particular religious norms and law. The relevance of the issue is emphasized in connection with the formulation of the task of legal protection of traditional values. It is noted that significant interest in the issues of the content and significance of traditional values cannot be resolved in isolation from the problem of the origin of social norms and institutions, culture as a whole. The social sciences are dominated by the idea of a significant influence of ideology, as well as religious doctrines, on the formation and development of law. As a result, legal regulation in isolation from moral principles is seen as the most important obstacle to building fair social relations and mutual understanding between people. The anthropology of law allows us to see that the origin of law and religious norms are based on different patterns, causes and mechanisms of occurrence; religious and legal norms have different contents, despite even the same form in some cases. Religious norms, like legal norms, have institutional protection mechanisms. It is argued that the principles of their implementation do not coincide. It is concluded that the identification of religious procedures with the legal procedural assignment of punishment is associated with an attempt to replace legal principles with religious, philosophical, moral and ethical ones. Such a substitution does not contribute to solving social problems associated with unhealthy competition, confrontation, and intolerance
