Abstract

This research examines whether religions can explain differences in the rule of law across nations. It finds that several religious groups can explain much of the variation in the rule of law while others have no explanatory power.

본 논문은 국가들의 법규범의 상이함이 종교에 의해 설명되어 질 수 있는지를 살펴본다. 즉 종교가 법규범에 영향을 미치는 가의 관계를 조사하는 것이며 그 결과 설명할 수 없는 나라들도 있는 한편 각 나라의 종교 집단에 따라 법규범에 있어서 변화가 많다는 것을 확인할 수 있다.
