The Laws of Social Cohesion (LSC) – On the importance of law for the democratic design of social cohesion

The research project Laws of Social Cohesion (LSC) is funded by the Berlin University Alliance as part of the Grand Challenges Initiative.

The project "The Laws of Social Cohesion" (LSC) examines how exactly the law promotes social cohesion, where the limits of its integrative capacity lie and to what extent it might even endanger social cohesion. In this context, law is not only understood as a framework for or as a result of political and economic negotiation, but rather as a social practice that actively shapes social coexistence.

The Law and Society Institute (LSI) carries out this project in cooperation with the Freie Universität Empirical Legal Studies Center (FUELS) and the research network Recht im Kontext.
