    Le droit à la liberté de croyance et la prolifération des confessions religieuses au Burundi : Période de 1992 à 2024
    (UB, FSPJ, 2025-03) Nitonde, Dieudonné; Sous la direction de : Docteur Pascal Rwankara
    The religious phenomenon has always been anchored in the range of rights and freedoms that every human being must enjoy, in compliance with the laws and regulations established by the public authorities of each state throughout the world. In Burundi, the right to freedom of belief is fully recognized; this is evidenced by the existence of religious institutions, whose proliferation is currently on a considerable scale. Thus, this study, which is offered for the reader's consideration, aims to understand the regulatory aspects of this situation and the control it poses by public authorities. In an effort to narrow down the relevant elements of the analysis undertaken, this thesis first highlights the general aspects surrounding the religious phenomenon. Next, an attempt at a critical assessment of the legal framework for religious freedom is provided, providing an overview of the main international and national legal instruments relevant to this study. Finally, the thesis highlights the observation that the existence of religious legal institutions constitutes a sufficient guarantee that freedom of belief is respected, while their excessive proliferation raises questions about the appropriateness of their restructuring through a process of regulation and control of their activities.
