Beatrice Weber-Dürler

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Beatrice Weber - Dürler (born January 30, 1944 in Zurich ) is a Swiss legal scholar .

After completing her doctorate in 1972 with Hans Nef , Weber-Dürler completed his habilitation in 1983 at the University of Zurich as the second lawyer after Emilie Kempin-Spyri (1891). Three years later she was elected full professor at the University of St. Gallen , making her the first woman to hold a chair in public law in Switzerland. In 1990 she was appointed to the University of Zurich, where she taught until her retirement in August 2008.

Her habilitation thesis on the protection of trust in public law was an important contribution to this so far little researched area. Her further research interests focused on classic topics such as legal equality , the encroachment on fundamental rights or the principle of proportionality .

She was married to the Zurich Chief Justice Hans Peter Weber-Dürler († 1993).
