Lectures for Law in Society
The series of events "Lectures for Law in Society", founded by the Faculty of Law, aims to promote a well-founded exchange between legal science and society on current topics and challenges to national and international legal systems. In times of far-reaching problems, the Faculty of Law is concerned to strengthen the awareness that law and the rule of law are both fragile and indispensable achievements of human culture through critical debates. The lectures are to cover a broad, pluralistic spectrum of perspectives once a year.
Kunst oder Demokratie! - Thomas Hirschhorn (23.4.2024)
The Swiss installation artist Thomas Hirschhorn gave a lecture on the topic of "Art or democracy!" Analogous to the demand "Money or life!" in the event of a robbery, he will address the question of what it means to want to save both, i.e. to sacrifice neither art nor democracy. He will illustrate what this implies using images of the "Robert Walser Sculpture" (2019) and "Swiss-Swiss Democracy" (2004).
