Description:
Ausgehend von Debatten über die Frage, ob wir in einer zunehmend polarisierten Gesellschaft leben, wird in dieser Vorlesung der Frage nachgegangen, wie wir (politische) Einstellungen messen und erklären können. Was sind Einstellungen, woher kommen sie und welche Auswirkungen haben sie auf unser Verhalten? Dabei werden insbesondere fremdenfeindliche, populistische und extremistische Einstellungen in den Mittelpunkt der Diskussion gerückt, die zu gesellschaftlichen Spaltungen führen. Neben einem allgemeinen Überblick werden in der Vorlesung einzelne Studien näher besprochen, die sich auch mit Themen wie Islamophobie und Antisemitismus beschäftigen, um einen genaueren Einblick in die universitäre Forschung zu erhalten und aktuelle gesellschaftliche Debatten besser verstehen und einordnen zu können.

Description:
The Dynamics of European Integration Research on European integration distinguishes between the causes and consequences of the institutional choices for European integration. In the current debate, proponents of liberal intergovernmentalism and differentiated integration argue that the political leaders of the member states are able to design an effective institutional framework for EU policy-making, while postfunctionalists contend that an institutional mismatch exists between supranational form and function. This lecture introduces into the theories and methodologies about the causes and consequences of the institutional choices and their implications for EU policy-making. To understand research on the dynamics of European integration, students should have advanced knowledge in analytical theory and methodology. They should meet three conditions:
  • Firstly, knowledge of the basic literature in international relations and comparative politics (lectures in BA);
  •  Secondly, methodological knowledge of research design and statistics (respective courses in political science or other disciplines);
  •  Thirdly, high interest in cutting-edge political science research (published in international leading scholarly journals)
As an accompanying reading to the readings published in the syllabus, I recommend reading the book by Thomas König. 2024. The Dynamics of European Integration. Causes and Consequences of Institutional Choices, Ann Arbor: Michigan University Press.

The lecture is interactive, which means that participants can ask questions. To foster interactive communication, the slides of the lecture will be made available before the session.
 
Aims:
  • Ability to understand and select political science studies on European integration and the European Union;
  • Excellent knowledge of the state of research on the main approaches to European integration and the European Union;
  • Scientific understanding of the functioning of the integration steps and the political system of the European Union;
  • Theoretical and methodological knowledge for the study of European integration and the European Union.
  •  Applying skills and knowledge to related or future problems of European integration and the European Union.
The course assessment consists of participation in discussions and a written examination (coverage of all sessions – multiple questions).  Prior to each session, you are expected to prepare the article assigned. Please prepare at least one question about each article.

Description:
This lecture introduces students to theories and methods for explaining how autocratic political systems emerge, how they consolidate and how they fail. Next to a discussion of how to define and measure ‘autocracies’, we will focus on the questions of how autocratic leaders deal with the dual problem of power-sharing among autocratic elites and controlling the mass public. We will also spend time on the role of institutions and public support in autocracies, how censorship and propaganda work and the prospects of protest mobilization. Next to substantive discussion the lecture will put great emphasis on the practice of quantitative political research.

Description:
Statistical skills are essential for students of any empirically oriented social science. In the study of political science an understanding of statistical data analysis is necessary not only for conducting analysis, but also for understanding a significant proportion of the empirical political science literature. This course is an introduction to data analysis in empirical political research. We will introduce the basic methods of data analysis using the statistical software package Stata. The course aims to provide students with an appreciation of what good statistical analysis can achieve, how to use statistical methods appropriately and with confidence and how to interpret the results produced by those methods clearly and correctly.

Description:
This course is designed to introduce beginning students to the central topics and terms in current (English) linguistics. We will discuss the sound system of English, how words are formed and modified in English and how words are combined to form sentences. Or in technical terms: We will cover phonetics, phonology, morphology, semantics, syntax, major (syntactic) contrasts between English and German and occasionally glimpse at the historical development of English. We will also have some brief looks at how these topics are relevant in language acquisition, language storage and processing in the human brain, and language variation over time and in society.

Note that this class will be taught as a flipped classroom, which means that you prepare sessions individually by reading the textbook chapter and watching video clips online BEFORE the sessions. In class your questions will be answered and problem cases solved. You will learn more about this in the first session.

Description:
In a globalised world, the ability to work effectively across cultures is crucial for businesses to succeed. From an individual perspective, cultural intelligence (Thomas, 2008), involves knowledge and awareness of cultural differences and developing communication skills to build trust between people from different backgrounds.
The course will cover the origins and history of intercultural communication', including intercultural business communication and the taxonomies developed by scholars such as Hofstede, Trompenaars & Hampden-Turner, Hall and Meyer. The course theories are illustrated by case studies, which the students will work through in class. Critical perspectives on the classic taxonomies and the concept of culture are also discussed. The students will learn to distinguish between etic and emic perspectives on culture as well as between static and dynamic perspectives. Furthermore, social constructivist and critical cross cultural management perspectives are covered, specifically related to diversity management and language management.  Diversity management and inclusive leadership will also be linked to social sustainability. There is also an emphasis on reflection, critical incidents, cultural adaptation and working in global teams.  
Learning outcomes include knowledge, skills and general competencies. Students will develop knowledge of fundamental theories from the field of intercultural business communication, knowledge about cross cultural management and how it links to diversity management and inclusion.
Students will become skilled in critically assessing the theories on intercultural business communication in light of practical cases, develop personal reflection skills and how to work effectively in multicultural groups.
General competencies include demonstrating sensitivity towards and respect for diversity in the workplace and understanding the importance of diversity management and inclusive leadership.
Teaching methods include readings, videos, websites, interactive lectures, case studies and group discussions. The course requires active participation, with an emphasis on written and oral reflection on learning.

This course is taught by Agnes Bamford from the Norwegian School of Economics (Bergen, Norway) and is offered with the generous support of Engage.EU.

Attendance:
On-campus and online, live
Registration procedure:

The course provides a general introduction to German Constitutional Law i.e. the constitution, its background and contents and methods to work with constitutional legal texts.
The German Grundgesetz (Basic Law) which up to this day forms the formal constitutional document of the Federal Republic of Germany has its roots in the allied occupation of Western Germany after World War II. It has proven to be a reliable foundation for the development of the German democratic system and the federal state. The provision of fundamental rights (Art. 1 – 19) puts the Grundgesetz in the tradition of European and North American human rights thinking. It has had an enormous impact on all German law.
Although experiencing some changes throughout the years – especially during the process of the German reunification – the general structure and main provisions of the Grundgesetz remained unchanged.
The course will cover the structure of the German Grundgesetz and its most important provisions while putting a particular focus on the first chapter containing the fundamental rights provisions. Additionally, students will learn about constitutional law in general, the federal structure and the fundamental constitutional principles of the Federal Republic and its integration in the European Union legal system as well as understand the function of the constitutional organs and the legislative process.

Contents:
•    The German legal system
•    Constitutional Law
•    The Grundgesetz and the European Union
•    Fundamental Rights
•    Fundamental Constitutional Principles
•    The Federal State
•    Constitutional organs
•    Legislative procedure
•    Public administration
•    The judicial system

Learning Target:
Students will be able to understand the basic principles and most important provisions of the Grundgesetz and solve simple cases regarding fundamental rights. They will be familiar with the structure of the federal state and its function as well as its most important constitutional, administrative and judicial organs. Students can assess by way of comparison similarities and dissimilarities in other legal systems.

Literature:
No specific textbook is required. Additional reading recommendations will be given in the lecture.

The course ‘Law and Climate Change’ will explore the relationship between law and environmental challenges. It will examine the legal responses to the climate crisis by providing an overview of the various German and international laws that are meant to combat climate change and discussing specific legal issues raised by this legislation.

Participants will first be introduced to fundamental rights and the role they play for climate protection. Thus, the German Federal Constitutional Court has made it clear that the constitution itself obliges the state, including all three powers, to take measures to protect the climate and future generations.
The course will analyse how climate change impacts legislation, the interpretation of the law and courts’ decision-making. On the one hand, the legislature can directly regulate certain behavioural obligations in order to protect the climate. It has done so in the area of global supply chains: The Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive, which has been in force since July 2024, implements defined due diligence obligations and makes all companies within its scope liable for failure to comply with them. On the other hand, the legislature can also choose to sanction harmful behaviour through tort law or the more specific law of environmental liability.

Furthermore, litigation is more and more used as a tool to address the causes and impacts of climate changes. The number of climate change cases is rapidly increasing around the world, and their purpose is not only to obtain compensation for damage induced by climate change. Instead, these cases are also filed against governments and companies to oblige them to do more for climate protection. In these cases, climate change litigation not only raises questions of tort law and, in cross-border situations, private international law, but also challenges the very authority of courts. Thus, some argue that courts lack the power to hear those cases because the climate crisis presents nonjusticiable political questions. Another newly emerging but related field is microplastic litigation, which deals with liability for the release of microplastic particles that are harmful to the environment and human health.
Moreover, EU legislation causes environmental protection to frequently have an impact on contractual relationships as well. This includes the so-called ‘right to repair’, which seeks to reduce waste and obliges manufacturers to produce certain goods in a way that allows consumers to have them repaired. Consumer protection law may also help prevent greenwashing, which consists of disinformation regarding a company’s environmental practices or the environmental impact of a product or its production.

Finally, law and climate change are also linked on a completely different level: To draw attention to the dangers of climate change and protest against the use of fossil energy, activists from campaign groups such as Last Generation, Just Stop Oil or Oil Kills carry out controversial protest actions by, e.g., throwing soup at paintings in museums or blocking roads and airport runways. Are they liable for the damage thus caused, or are those actions justified based on a higher cause?

IHL protects those who are not participating in hostilities, and those who are no longer participating in hostilities. This body of law imposes limits on the methods and means of warfare. IHL forms part of public international law and is largely based on treaties and rules of customary international law. 
In this course the development as well as the basic concepts of IHL will be explored. Students will be introduced to the most important documents governing armed conflict, learn how to apply these and will consider the challenges posed to the application of IHL in armed conflicts. A large part of the course will focus on the new developments in IHL including the emergence of new forms of armed conflicts and the development and use of new technologies in armed conflict.

Assessment
Assessment for this course will consist of one presentation and one take-home exam.
Introduction to German Constitutional Law (Lecture)
EN
Course type:
Lecture
ECTS:
8.0
Course suitable for:
Bachelor, Master
Language of instruction:
English
Attendance:
On-campus and online, live
Registration procedure:

The course provides a general introduction to German Constitutional Law i.e. the constitution, its background and contents and methods to work with constitutional legal texts.
The German Grundgesetz (Basic Law) which up to this day forms the formal constitutional document of the Federal Republic of Germany has its roots in the allied occupation of Western Germany after World War II. It has proven to be a reliable foundation for the development of the German democratic system and the federal state. The provision of fundamental rights (Art. 1 – 19) puts the Grundgesetz in the tradition of European and North American human rights thinking. It has had an enormous impact on all German law.
Although experiencing some changes throughout the years – especially during the process of the German reunification – the general structure and main provisions of the Grundgesetz remained unchanged.
The course will cover the structure of the German Grundgesetz and its most important provisions while putting a particular focus on the first chapter containing the fundamental rights provisions. Additionally, students will learn about constitutional law in general, the federal structure and the fundamental constitutional principles of the Federal Republic and its integration in the European Union legal system as well as understand the function of the constitutional organs and the legislative process.

Contents:
•    The German legal system
•    Constitutional Law
•    The Grundgesetz and the European Union
•    Fundamental Rights
•    Fundamental Constitutional Principles
•    The Federal State
•    Constitutional organs
•    Legislative procedure
•    Public administration
•    The judicial system

Learning Target:
Students will be able to understand the basic principles and most important provisions of the Grundgesetz and solve simple cases regarding fundamental rights. They will be familiar with the structure of the federal state and its function as well as its most important constitutional, administrative and judicial organs. Students can assess by way of comparison similarities and dissimilarities in other legal systems.

Literature:
No specific textbook is required. Additional reading recommendations will be given in the lecture.
