Participants were given the opportunity to present their own new research at draft stage and discuss it with the other participants and audience members from the University of Münster. The conference program can be found here.

• New York Times article quoting Prof. Hailbronner: "Germany Looks to Stop the Far Right From Assuming Power," NYT, 03/13/2024. (The quote of Prof. Hailbronner's remarks is misleading. New York Times has been asked for clarification. Prof. Hailbronner is not arguing that efforts to enhance the protection of the Federal Constitutional Court are abusive, but rather supports them and calls for consideration on a case-by-case basis with respect to other measures.)
