Problems of legal regulation of State-confessional relations in the Kyrgyz Republic

Abstract

Since independence, the issue of legal regulation of state-confessional relations has become particularly acute in the countries of the post-Soviet region. This is primarily due to the democratization of the state system of the CIS countries, including the Kyrgyz Republic, and the spread of new trends of traditional beliefs, as well as the emergence and introduction of completely new religious teachings for the region. The State, as the main regulator of legal relations in society, needs to create an effective regulatory legal framework for the realization of the right to freedom of conscience and religion by all participants in confessional and religious legal relations. The purpose of this article is to study and identify problems in legislation in the field of regulation of state-confessional relations.
