Aims & Contents

As part of the programme for the recruitment and development of professorial staff (ProGEPP), the doctoral programme "Human Rights and Social Justice", which is based at the Department of Social and Cultural Sciences, is dedicated to current and socio-politically relevant issues in the field of social and human rights research. Various aspects of distributive justice, conflicts over recognition and the implications of unequal access to legal institutions take centre stage. The doctoral projects at the doctoral programme focus on inter- and transdisciplinarity, application orientation, practical relevance and international orientation.
