Seminars

Democratic systems in various countries are under considerable pressure from authoritarian and dictatorial regimes in other countries, but also from internal, anti-democratic political movements. Clarifying the founda-tions of democracies is therefore a central task of legal scholarship.

The seminar will be taught with Prof. Sudhir Krishnaswamy from the National Law School of India. This will allow the experiences and problems of the world's largest post-colonial democracy to be included in the dis-cussion and broaden the global perspective.
