The questions that move us...
The research activities at the Department of Public Law and Political Science cover a broad spectrum: On the one hand, it encompasses classical legal dogmatics in Austrian constitutional and administrative law, but on the other hand it is also dedicated to neighbouring sciences and related non-Austrian phenomena. In accordance with the practice of the subjects represented, individual research dominates at the Institute. We consider a certain minimum breadth of research areas to be important and a reduction to merely focussed research to be inappropriate. With regard to a stronger bundling of individual research, however, we also developed four research specialisations for the Institute after intensive discussion at the beginning of 2010.
