Max Planck LawcastGlobal Gatekeepers: Online Oversight and Internet Content ModerationGuest: Erik Tuchtfeld (Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law)
The Internet connects people from across the globe: it facilitates communication and has single-handedly transformed education, commerce, and entertainment. But who controls what we can say and find on the Internet? Or better put, who are the Internet’s Global Gatekeepers?
In this episode, Erik Tuchtfeld and Christopher Murphy dive into the complex world of online content moderation and discuss its far-reaching implications.

Is Latin America on the verge of a clash between human rights and the growing influence of Christian Evangelicals? This episode of the Max Planck Lawcast delves into the rise of Evangelical Christianity in Latin America.

This episode delves into the US Supreme Court's 2022 decision to overturn the constitutional right to abortion, a ruling that sparked intense national protest and division. Janne Mende and Christopher Murphy analyse the decision, connecting it to the concept of norm decoupling, which describes the increasing separation of liberal-democratic norms from their traditional interpretations and applications. The discussion then turns to whether the handling of abortion rights in the US is indicative of a more general backsliding of liberal-democratic norms.

During the years that it was in power, the Nazi regime made far-reaching changes to German civil law, especially family law. Marriage was understood as a societal 'service', children were deemed to be the nation's 'most precious asset', and mothers were idolized as the backbone of society. In today's Lawcast episode, Lara Bucholski details how these civil law changes serve as proof that law is rarely truly neutral as seen by the fact that the value-based jurisprudence of the Nazi regime influenced and modified existing...2025-02-1739 minMax Planck LawcastThe International Regulation of Warfare: A History of Power, Law, and HumanityGuest: Raphael Schäfer (Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law)
One of international law’s greatest concerns is ensuring peace. However, sometimes this simply isn't possible. In such instances, the goal of international law then swings towards guaranteeing ‘humane’ warfare and resolving conflicts as quickly as possible.
In today's Lawcast episode, Raphael Schäfer elaborates on the functioning of the laws of war based on their historical context. Although warfare has rapidly evolved over the centuries, the associated death and destruction have not. So what can today’s politicians learn from the politi...2025-01-2842 min

Normative ambiguity, which stems from conflicting norms, can lead to inefficiency and self-serving behaviour. In this episode, Mahdi Khesali introduces a study that he and his colleague Yoan Hermstrüwer have conducted. Based on a 'stealing game', Mahdi discusses how voting on a given moral norm affects our moral compass. The findings emphasize the importance of expressive law and how effectively-designed voting mechanisms can communicate normative consensus.

While Bürgergeld has done away with a number of sanctions that were deemed unfair and counterproductive, not everyone is impressed by this new approach to unemployment and serious concerns have been raised that the benefits are now too attractive (and expensive).

Defining what makes someone a father has become a complex task in contemporary Europe. What roles are attributed to genetics, marriage, gender, and active involvement in a child's life? Courts are increasingly grappling with these questions, prompted by a combination of societal shifts and scientific advancements, including assisted reproductive technologies and the growing social acceptance of LGBTQ families.

Denn die Max-Planck-Gesellschaft betreibt in ihren über 80 Instituten Grundlagenforschung. Darunter sind auch einige Institute, die Tierversuche durchführen, bei denen man häufig nicht das findet, was man bei Tierversuchen vielleicht als „Standard“ bezeichnen könnte: Etwa exotische Tierarten und Forschungsfragen an den Grenzen des biologischen Wissens.

Max Planck Florida’s Neurotransmissions Podcast78. Could Sleep be Nature's Time-out? | Giorgio F. GilestroSleep is a highly conserved behavior among the animal kingdom, appearing as distant as jellyfish and elephants. It is generally believed that sleep serves a crucially important yet mysterious “core function” that is shared among all animals and that drives its evolution, but the evidence behind this hypothesis is lacking.
In this episode, Lesley has a fun chat with Dr. Giorgio F. Gilestro, an Associate Professor from Imperial College in London, England who for the past 15 years has been researching sleep and its link to biology and behavior.
