This chapter explores the practice of the status quo regime and argues that in fact, contrary to its reputation, the status quo was ever-changing, and in this respect does not represent a workable compromise anymore. It describes the basic arrangements of the status quo in its formative years and analyses the conditions that shaped the status quo and enabled it to function and also describes the changes that the status quo has gone undergone, exposing it as a particularly unstable regime. The chapter also analyses the processes that transformed the application of the status quo, and the institutional mechanisms through which they were implemented. It evaluates the impact that judicial review had on both the preservation of the status quo and the changes introduced to it. The chapter reflections on the viability of adopting a status quo model for the regulation of religion within a constitutional regime.
