Life

After studying law and sociology at the universities of Tübingen , Marburg , Giessen and at the University of California, Berkeley Morlok was 1978-1980 assistant at the Law Faculty of the University of Augsburg in Peter Haeberle . Morlok received his doctorate there in 1986 . Subsequently, Morlok was a research assistant at the chair for “German and Foreign Constitutional Law and State Doctrine ” at the Distance University in Hagen with Dimitris Th. Tsatsos ; there followed in 1991 also the habilitation .

In the same year, he was appointed professor for public law at the University of Augsburg, which he already knew because of his assistantship. From 1993 to 1997 Morlok held the chair for public law , legal theory and legal sociology at the Friedrich Schiller University in Jena . He turned down offers to the University of the Federal Armed Forces in Munich and the University of Rostock . This was followed by a further call to the chair for public law, legal theory and legal sociology at the Open University of Hagen , where Morlok had also worked as a research assistant. Associated with this was the position of director of the Institute for German and European Party Law . In 2002, Morlok asked the North Rhine-Westphalian Ministry of Science and Research to transfer him from the Fernuniversität Hagen to the Faculty of Law at Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf , where Morlok had already worked due to a previously existing cooperation between the two universities. Since then he has held the chair for public law, legal theory and legal sociology and also acted as director of the Institute for German and International Party Law and Party Research . On October 7, 2015, Morlok was elected chairman of the Association of German Constitutional Law Teachers in Speyer .

Morlok retired at the end of July 2017, but has since worked at the same chair as a substitute for another year. In October 2018 he gave his farewell lecture on "The Justice of the Law".
