Beim traditionellen Tag der Rechtswissenschaften ging es einmal mehr um gesellschaftsrelevante Themen. In diesem Jahr stand der Fokus auf "Konflikte" und "Krisen", und wie Uni-Graz-Jurist:innen dazu beitragen können, sie zu bewältigen oder gar zu lösen.

Es sind die brennenden Fragen unserer Zeit, mit der sich Wissenschaftler:innen der Universität Graz täglich in Forschung und Lehre auseinandersetzen. Als Vorbote für “Uni Vibes - das Fest, das Grenzen überwindet” veranstalteten die Rechtswissenschaften am 23. Mai ihren traditionellen Fakultätstag. Neben Vorträgen gab es am Nachmittag Workshops zu unterschiedlichen Themen. 

Frieden in Europa

Seit mehr drei Jahren herrscht Krieg in Europa. Und ein Ende des russischen Überfalls auf die Ukraine ist nicht in Sicht. Vielmehr will sich die EU mit einem Aufrüstungspaket um 800 Milliarden Euro gegen weitere Angriffe wappnen. Welche Rolle spielt das Recht als Instrument zur Konfliktlösung? Wie kann der Frieden in Europa geregelt werden? Diesen Fragen ging im Rahmen des REWI-Fakultätstages eine hochkarätig besetzte Runde nach, die den thematischen Bogen von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart spannte. Neben der rechtswissenschaftlichen Expertise der Uni Graz von Anita Ziegerhofer, Marlene Peinhopf, Benedikt Harzl und Jürgen Pirker steuerte der ehemalige EU-Kommissar Johannes Hahn seine Erfahrung und Einschätzung bei.

30 years after Srebrenica: Heike Karge supports forces for reconciliation

This year marks the thirtieth anniversary of the Srebrenica massacre in Bosnia. To this day, Serbia and the Republika Srpska refuse to characterise the killing of more than 8,000 Bosnian Muslims as genocide. Those in power lack the will to come to terms with the atrocities. There is hope from strong forces in civil society who want to make a process of reconciliation possible by documenting war crimes across national and ethnic boundaries. Heike Karge, Professor of Southeast European History at the University of Graz, supports them in joint research projects, among other things.

Signals from the roots: how the plant hormone cytokinin influences flowering

Many do it in spring, others wait a little longer and some really get going in winter – when a plant begins to flower is controlled by various internal and external signals. In a study published in the renowned scientific journal Plant Physiology, researchers at the University of Graz were able to clarify the role played by the hormone cytokinin in this process. The findings are also interesting with regard to the breeding of crops for agriculture. In view of changing climatic conditions, adjustments to the start of flowering could help to secure yields.
