Summary
»There is no state church«, proclaimed the Weimar Constitution, and thereby sealed the fate of the centuries-old alliance between throne and altar. Horst Dreier goes in search of the origin and lasting significance of this key norm of religious constitutional law by tracing the conflict-laden path that led to »Church without King«.
