Staatsdiskurse

States in the 21st century are caught between security and freedom, order and change, rule and democracy. International transactions also reduce their sovereignty in relation to the outside world, while particular social interests limit their ability to act in the domestic sphere.

The series Staatsdiskurse observes the development of states and analyzes their relationship to law, power, and politics. With an interdisciplinary self-image, it aims to pursue an integrative political science approach: It combines political, legal, sociological, and philosophical perspectives while analyzing all the facets and emanations of states. Both domestic and international researchers are invited to submit their results and engage in an open discourse
