RIASSUNTO
The attention given by law to dietary practices of a religious nature has grown considerably in recent years. This essay seeks to provide a clearer understanding of what the “religious dietary freedom” should mean, mainly focusing on the problem of its exercise in prison. After an introduction about the ‘practical dimension” of religions, the author offers a classification of the various religious dietary rules, highlighting their importance for the well-being of the prisoners. Finally, the last part of the essay is devoted to critically analize some judgements of the European Court of Human Rights regarding the “religious dietary freedom” of the prisoners.
