AIDC/IACL-GENERALKONGRESS BERLIN 28.09.-02.10.2026

Ver­an­stal­tungs­pro­gramm

Mit einem vielfältigen Programm wird der Kongress eine Vielzahl von Themen behandeln, die die dynamische und sich ständig weiterentwickelnde Landschaft des Rechtsvergleichs widerspiegeln.

Der Kongress bietet unter anderem:

  • 29 Podiumsdiskussionen, die alle Rechtsbereiche abdecken
  • Drei mehrtägige, vertiefende Workshops
  • Präsentationen ausgewählter Beiträge von Young Scholars (ausgewählt durch einen Call for Papers)
  • Networking und kulturelle Veranstaltungen

Da während des gesamten Kongresses mehrere parallele Veranstaltungsreihen stattfinden, können Teilnehmende ein individuelles Programm zusammenstellen, indem sie die Podiumsdiskussionen, Workshops oder Sonderveranstaltungen auswählen, die sie am meisten interessieren.

Das genaue Programm befindet sich derzeit in Bearbeitung und wird kurz vor der Veranstaltung bekannt gegeben. Die Themen der Podiumsdiskussionen und Workshops sind bereits unten aufgeführt, damit Sie sich einen Überblick verschaffen können.
