Udo Kornblum

Udo Kornblum (born June 6, 1934 in Danzig ) is a German legal scholar . From 1975 to 2000 he was a full professor of private law at the University of Stuttgart .

Life

Kornblum had to flee Danzig at the end of the war because of his German descent. His new place of residence was Goslar , where he graduated from high school in 1954. He then studied law at the universities of Frankfurt am Main and Freiburg im Breisgau until 1958 . In 1959 a four-year legal traineeship followed , which he completed in 1963 with the second state examination. He had already obtained his doctorate in Frankfurt in 1960 . After the second exam, Kornblum worked in Frankfurt am Main as a research assistant. In 1967 he completed his habilitation there with Gerhard Schiedermair . He then worked at the University of Frankfurt as a private lecturer and later as a professor for civil law , commercial , economic and civil procedural law. He also represented chairs at the universities of Marburg , Münster , Göttingen and Mannheim .

In the 1975/76 winter semester, the University of Stuttgart appointed him to the newly created chair for law, which from 1978 was incorporated into the then Institute for Social Research (today: Institute for Economics and Law). From the winter semester 1982/83 to the summer semester 1984 he was Dean of the Faculty of History, Social and Economic Sciences. From 1978 to 1998 he was an honorary judge at the disciplinary chamber of the Stuttgart Administrative Court . If necessary, he also held occasional courses at the University of Hohenheim . In September 2000 he retired. At the same time, his former chair in Stuttgart fell victim to financial constraints.

Kornblum's research focuses in particular on medieval procedural law, the law of German and international arbitration , corporate law , the law of the liberal professions , civil procedural law and commercial law.
