Max Planck Law
Over de werkgever
Max Planck Law comprises ten Institutes engaged in advanced legal research. The first of these was established in Berlin in 1924. Today, we cover a broad range of legal studies, from the anthropology of law to tax law, in nine different locations across Germany and Luxembourg.
As part of the Max Planck Society, we are committed to its mission of pushing the frontiers of knowledge by way of fundamental, or ‘basic’, research. Our approach is intra- and interdisciplinary, and we have a strong focus on comparative and transnational research questions.
Together, we operate the world’s largest programme for doctoral studies and postdoctoral training in law. We offer excellent conditions and generously funded positions for early career researchers. Additionally, hundreds of academic visitors from all over the world join us in any given year.
