Discriminación y manifestaciones religiosas en el deporte profesional
Abstract
Individual demonstrations of faith, whether of a sport nature or not, make part of the right to freedom of religion, which, as root to most freedoms, involves conscience and freedom of expression. Regarding competitive sportspeople we face prohibitions supporting a neutral ground of ideologies and beliefs so as to make identity out of common ground toward peace and development. Conflict is clear, individual freedoms of people with their own identity facing an aseptic world which tries proving there is such a thing as a legitimate purpose. The current piece of work deals with direct and indirect discrimination against sportspeople together with the likely ways of conciliation, reasonable accommodation and arbitration, based on the fact that human dignity must be the flagship in this society where freedom based on faith and beliefs crash into one another.
