Challenges of Teaching Constitutional Law in a Secular State
The article deals with the problem of integrity of scientific views on the generally recognized constitutional norms in the context of social regulation. Many constitutional scholars examine social norms separately from each other, rather than as a whole, which is unacceptable. The authors draw attention to the fact that morality is normative in nature and is closely linked to such social regulators as religion and law. That is why religious rules in universities should be studied and, subsequently, adequately reflected in rule-making and law enforcement activities. The criteria of distinction between law and morality are highlighted. The problem of separation of law from morality in the context of legal regulation is analyzed. The authors also conclude that the principles of international law on which the human rights system is built at the international level and in the national legislation can restrict human rights only in order to ensure the rights of others.
