Erwin-Schrödinger-Saal
Plenary

German and English languageWhat kind of controlling function does international law actually have in international conflicts? Is it possible and desirable to establish a body of public international law for an entire world society or are different legal cultures developing parallel to each other? In our multireligious, multicultural world, does law foster integration and unification rather than separation?
