DEPARTMENT OF LEGAL THEORY, INTERNATIONAL AND EUROPEAN LAW

In our globalised world, every society, every individual is more networked than ever before. At the same time, we face many challenges in our society: The climate crisis, the pandemic and medical ethics, populism, international conflicts, digital platforms, etc. These cannot be overcome by individual states alone – a common European and international legal consensus is needed more than ever. Only if we gain a better understanding of the current and upcoming challenges can we fulfil our responsibilities as caretakers of society and nature. The Department of Legal Theory, International and European Law can make this possible.
