Abstract

And that is the reason why today I want to talk about the existence of the Ecclesiastical Law of the State, a right that exists because a Constitution exists; that is, before the promulgation of the Spanish Constitution the posibility of the State contemplating religion in a whole was not taken into account, simply because the Spanish State was confessional till 1978 and it did not admit another credo that the Catholic one; therefore, with this premise in mind, I am going to expose the reasons that justify that in this Faculty, like in all the Law Faculties in our country, subjects concerning the Ecclesiastical Law of the State are also studied.
