history

The Cologne Institute for Air and Space Law sees itself as the successor to the Königsberg “Institute for Air Law”. From 1926 onwards, the "Zeitschrift für das Luftrecht" was published in Königsberg, which had to stop its publication in 1928 for economic reasons. In 1931 the institute dared to try again to publish a magazine. The “Archive for Aviation Law” was able to benefit from the increase in air traffic in the 1930s and was published until 1943, most recently in Berlin. The last editor was the director of the Institute for Aviation Law, Rüdiger Schleicher , who was shot dead in April 1945 as a member of the resistance.

In January 1951 the “Research Center for Aviation Law” was set up at the University of Cologne, its first director was Alex Meyer . Just one year after starting work, the research center published the "Zeitschrift für Luftrecht (ZLR)" for the first time. In 1954 the lawyer Hubert Wessels became editor-in-chief of the magazine as an employee of the research center. Like his successors, he was a proven expert in air and space law. In the following year the research center became the "Institute for Aviation Law". In 1959, the university recognized the importance of space law as a field of law, and the institute was named "Institute for Air Law and Space Law Issues". The title of the magazine changed accordingly in 1960. In 1974 both Alex Meyer and Hubert Wessels left the institute. In 1975, Karl-Heinz Böckstiegel became the new director of the institute and the lawyer Edmund Faller took over the editorial management. At Böckstegel's suggestion, the institute was named “Institute for Air and Space Law” in 1975, and the “Zeitschrift für Luft- und Weltraumrecht” (ZLW) also took part in this new name change.

The magazine has been trilingual since 1976 and has the subtitles "German Journal of Air and Space Law" and "Revue Allemande de Droit Aérien et Spatial". With the departure of Edmund Faller, the lawyer Marietta Benkö took over the editorial management from 1978 to 2013. In 2001 Karl-Heinz Böckstiegel retired, Stephan Hobe has been the new head of the institute and publisher of the magazine for air and space law since then . In 2013, Isabel Polley took over the editorial management of the magazine.
