Head of Department Jürgen Pirker
The department of Global Governance, based at the Institute of the Foundations of Law, explores cultural, political and legal challenges underlying the processes of Europeanization and globalization. We are committed to bringing together wide-ranging expertise to tackle multi-disciplinary issues on local, national, transnational and international dimensions.
The department of Global Governance embraces an interdisciplinary frame of reference based on law in context. Our work incorporates approaches and methods of law, political and social sciences and humanities, as well as cultural sciences in research, teaching and practice. Cross-disciplinary methods and approaches are applied across three dimensions: research; intervention and evaluation research; and training and practice.
