Christian Joerges (* 27. September 1943 in Weißenfels) is Professor Emeritus of Law and Society at the Hertie School of Governance.[1] and Co-Director of the Centre for European Law and Politics at the University of Bremen[2].

[edit]

Joerges started his law studies at Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in 1962, spent a study term at University of Montpellier before completing his studies with the First State Examination in August 1966. Between 1966 and 1967, he was a researcher at the Institute for International and Foreign Trade Law, at Georgetown University Law Center, Washington, D.C. Following, he continued doctoral research under the supervision of professors Rudolf Wiethölter and Heinrich Kronstein. He defended his Ph. D in 1970 with a thesis Zum Funktionswandel des Kollisionsrechts: Die “Governmental Interest Analysis” und die “Krise des Internationalen Privatrechts[3].

Between 1972 and 1974 Joerges worked as an Assistant Lecturer at University of Frankfurt and an attorney of law in Frankfurt.[4] In 1974, he was appointed Professor of German and European Private Law and Economic law at University of Bremen, where he later also headed the law department and co-directed the Center for European Law and Policy.[5]

After a year as a guest professor, he was named full-time professor for Economic Law at the European University Institute (EUI), Florence, Italy in 1998.[6] After 21 years at the EUI, and departing as Economic and Private Law Chair, Joerges was regarded as “one of the most senior professors”[7] to leave the institute when he was replaced as chair by Hans Wolfang Micklitz in September 2007.

Between 2013-2018 he was senior professor for Law and Society at the Hertie School of Governance in Berlin.

Joerges held visiting professorships at the Columbia University School of Law, the Hauser Global Law Faculty at NYU, the University of Toronto. He returned from EUI to Universität Bremen’s Law Faculty in 2007 and was awarded a Research Professorship. At the Collaborative Research Centre “Transformations of the State” he organized with Josef Falke a long-term project on social regulation and international trade.
