The different theoretical notions and practices of the relations
between the state and religious communities in early modern Europe
constitute one of the most interesting problems in historiography.
Moving away from a simple "toleration" versus "non-toleration"
dichotomy, the author sets out to analyse the inter-confessional
relations in selected European territories in a "longue duree"
perspective, between Reformation and Enlightenment. Outlining the
relations between the state and the different Churches
(confessions) in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Holy Roman
Empire of Germany, and the Northern Netherlands serves to highlight
the specificity of Northern Netherlands serves to highlight the
specificity of "free" (non-absolutist) composite states, where the
particularly complex process of defining the raison d'etat
determined the level of religious toleration that was politically
feasible and socially acceptable.
