Abstract
Esta investigación analiza el secreto de los ministros de culto como protección del sigilo de confesión en el derecho español. Para abordar este estudio, se exponen las dos facetas de la misma cuestión, es decir, el aspecto religioso (el sigilo de confesión) y el aspecto estatal (el secreto de los ministros de culto). Para estudiar el primer aspecto se sintetizan aquí la historia y regulaciones del derecho canónico. Para investigar sobre el segundo aspecto, se exponen los valores jurídicos subyacentes a la protección del secreto de los ministros de culto. Finalmente se estudia críticamente la regulación del secreto de los ministros de culto en el derecho español.
This research analyzes the religious communications privilege as a legal rule that protects the seal of confession in Spanish law. Two facets of the same issue are studied in preparation for this, namely the religious side (seal of confession)and the secular legal side (the religious communications privilege). To address the first, history and regulations in canon law are synthesized. To investigate the second, the religious communications privilege, the legal values underlying this phenomenon will be explained. Finally, the legal regulation of religious communications privilege in Spanish law will be critically analyzed.
