In Germany, police laws of the Länder contain regulations on banning alcohol in public places. Despite attracting the attention of legal scholars and courts, the issue whether alcohol bans discriminate on grounds of social class has been overlooked. The article examines this issue through the lens of homelessness. We begin by evaluating the legal basis for alcohol bans in Saxony, which was reformed in 2020. To address this question, we first examine the concept of “social class”, which though not explicitly recognised in the Basic Law, is closely linked to the listed characteristic of “origin” and is, in any case, protected by the general principle of equality. Finally, besides emerging in individual cases, we demonstrate why current legislation already creates potential for discrimination through indeterminate legal terms.

Up until very recently, the term »terrorism« was unknown in German law. Although »terrorism« has been an integral part of the political vocabulary in the field of internal and judicial policy for decades, it was unheard-of in the German legal system. As a legal concept, criterion or normative approach it did not exist, neither in constitutional law nor in ordinary statutory law (Criminal law/Police law). Meanwhile, however, terrorist threats and terrorist offenses are leaving a mark on German legislature. If a »terrorised legislator« embeds the term into the law for the first time, a precise legal definition of terrorism is indispensable. This is because it determines which actions count as »acts of terrorism« as well as who is regarded as a »terrorist«. Moreover the definition of terrorism triggers a range of controversial extensions of police and prosecutorial powers.

Gender equality laws have existed in public administration in Germany since 1998. These laws specify the constitutional requirement of gender equality on the basis of article 3(2) of the German Constitution. Considering the background of present discussions in Germany concerning inclusion and diversity in public administration, this article analyses possibilities to address intersectional discrimination, including racial discrimination and discrimination based on different socio-economic backgrounds. Therefore, the following critical analysis focuses on possible intersectional approaches in German gender equality laws. The article presents the primary existing constitutional provisions and simple legal rulings, while also taking a ‘de lege ferenda’ perspective. To this end, the article suggests concrete wording for new legislation and for the amendment of existing laws.

By analyzing civil law exams students failed to pass, this case study aims to identify the heuristic strategies which led students to make mistakes. It is shown that these strategies are sometimes part of some kind of hidden curriculum of law courses and teaching materials. On this basis, a number of suggestions for improving teaching are put forward for discussion.

Der folgende Beitrag ist im Rahmen der Kooperation der Rechtsfakultäten in Luxemburg und Vientiane entstanden. Sie ist Teil eines kooperationspolitischen Projekts zur Implementation rechtsstaatlicher Prinzipien in Ländern des Globalen Südens. In der demokratischen Volksrepublik Laos stellen sich bei deren Übergang in einen Rechtsstaat besondere interkulturelle, ökonomische und geopolitische Herausforderungen, die bei der Verankerung rechtsstaatlicher Prinzipien zu beachten sind. Der Beitrag ist exemplarisch für diese Zusammenarbeit und thematisiert, inwiefern Regeln der europäischen Rechtsdurchsetzung modellhaft für die ASEAN-Staaten sein können.

The Corona pandemic, which has been going on for over a year, has Germany tightly in its grip. More than ever before, the digitalisation deficit in administration and business, which was already frequently noted, has become visible. Yet modern technologies can help to maintain social life or even to reverse restrictions that have occurred due to pandemic events. Where pen and paper used to be unavoidable, digital formats can now be used. Elections to parliaments are a particularly important field of application. They are a direct expression of democracy and indispensable for a free and pluralistic society. For this reason, progressive digitalisation must also be made fruitful in this area and online voting must be used for a contemporary electoral technology. This article is therefore dedicated to the challenges of online elections to parliaments in the age of digitization.
