Monastic vows in the Romanian Orthodox Church between Canon Law and Civil Law

Monastic vows in the Romanian Orthodox Church between Canon Law and Civil Law
Protosinghel Iustin TABAN
The book by Father Protosinghel Iustin Taban represents the first doctoral thesis in Canon Law defended at the Babeș-Bolyai University Cluj Napoca. The dissertation was presented in an exceptional academic setting, having as referees Pr. Conf. Dr. Patriciu Vlaicu, Pr. Prof. Dr. George Grigoriță, Pr. Conf. Dr. Emilian Iustinian Roman and Prof. Dr. Liviu Marius Harosa. The book is an in-depth analysis of the institution of monasticism in the Romanian Orthodox Church and the status of monastics in the Church and in society, through the prism of the interaction between Canon Law and Civil Law.
The 560-page work benefits from a rich Bibliography, Appendices with ecclesiastical and civil legislation, cases and jurisprudence on the law of cults and an Index of canonical and legal institutions. Thus, it is an interdisciplinary compendium of great utility for all those who wish to deepen their knowledge of the law of cults, religious freedom and the Church-State relationship: theologians, canonists, lawyers, legal advisors, judges, church counselors and public administration officials alike.
