Research priorities

Ladeur deals with legal theory and public law . His research in the field of public law focuses on media law , environmental law and European administrative law . He pursued his research at universities in Paris , Amiens , Stanford and Harvard, among others .

Ladeur wants to redefine the relationship between subject, society and the state against the background of more recent philosophical and sociological movements. Instead of drawing clear boundaries between them, he sees them in a relationship of mutual "blurring". This legal-philosophical classification has far-reaching consequences for the function and content of the legal system in general and fundamental rights theory in particular. His postmodern legal theory contains various references to the philosophy of language and systems theory.

Honors

A symposium was held at the University of Hamburg on the occasion of Ladeur's retirement , the results of which were then published as a volume Uncertainty as Opportunity by Mohr Siebeck Verlag .

In 2011, Ladeur was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Friborg (Switzerland) because he had succeeded in creating interdisciplinary links between law and sociology and he was always looking for solutions to social problems.
