El velo islámico ha sido objeto en los últimos años, especialmente en algunos países europeos, de un intenso debate en el que se entrecruzan la neutralidad religiosa o la laicidad del Estado, la libertad religiosa en sus facetas positiva y negativa y el principio de tolerancia, entre otros. En tal contexto, este trabajo intenta reflejar, con apoyo en pronunciamientos de tribunales nacionales, y de organismos internacionales encargados de la protección de los derechos humanos, los principales problemas jurídicos relacionados con las restricciones impuestas al uso del velo islámico en instituciones educativas públicas. Además, desde la perspectiva de los derechos humanos, en particular de la libertad religiosa, y del principio de tolerancia se trazan las líneas fundamentales para un examen crítico del tema.Universidad Católica del Uruguay2016-01-312025-12-22T16:47:26Z2025-12-22T16:47:26Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPapers evaluated by peersArtículos evaluados por paresAvaliados por paresinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/revistadederecho/article/view/84510.22235/rd.v0i2.845https://hdl.handle.net/10895/7146Revista de Derecho; No. 2 (2007): Revista de Derecho; 13-33Revista de Derecho; Núm. 2 (2007): Revista de Derecho; 13-33Revista de Derecho; N.º 2 (2007): Revista de Derecho; 13-332393-61931510-371410.22235/rd.v0i2reponame:LIBERIinstname:Universidad Católica del Uruguayinstacron:Universidad Católica del Uruguayspahttps://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/revistadederecho/article/view/845/848Derechos de autor 2016 Revista de Derechoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:liberi.ucu.edu.uy:10895/71462026-06-16T06:54:04Z
