• In Event: Roundtable: Understanding Each Other – Comparative Criminal Justice in Research and Teaching

Abstract

Comparative research projects are very valuable when it comes to a specific focus on the criminal justice systems in Austria and Germany. It can explore how legal challenges and issues are addressed in Germany and Austria, identifying both commonalities and differences. The primary objective is to leverage these comparisons to exchange ideas and best practices in two similar legal systems, ultimately contributing to the evolution of criminal justice practices in both nations. By highlighting the challenges and opportunities inherent in each legal framework, comparative papers lay the foundation for more effective cross-border cooperation in criminal justice matters.
