Course Contribution Description

At the Faculty of Law of Universitas Gadjah Mada the courses are shared by several lecturers. This table informs about the contents of my lectures in November 2022. They complement those of my colleagues from the comparative perspective with a focus on German law. The comparative approach is helpful for a better understanding of the own national administrative law, its particularities, strong and weak points and possible perspectives.

Parts of this course contribution build on the studies on the legality of the administrative decision in the course Administrative Law in the last semester. Please review the relevant materials before the first lecture!
