in deutscher SpracheHow much liberty do societies need? What degree of security is necessary to protect individuals on the one hand and ensure public order on the other? Are liberty and security at opposite ends of the spectrum or are they mutually dependent in various areas of society? We will discuss these questions with experts from a variety of fields, touching aspects of criminal and social security law, network neutrality, access to resources and ethics in research.
