Open or Closed Catalog of Sources of Canon Law? Theoretical and Legal Comments

Abstract

The question about the system of sources of law in the canonical legal order is quite a complex task. Formulating research questions in the context of investigations regarding the catalog of sources of law becomes even more complicated. The article aims to find the answer to the question about an open or closed catalog of sources of canon law. Scientific research includes the analysis of applicable norms as well as the law-creative role of custom and the so-called state laws adopted by the church legislator into the canon law system.

Keywords:

sources of canon law, system of sources of law, open or closed catalog of sources of law, custom, canonized norm
