TEHA seminars and masterclasses for SOGOLAS researchers:
12.11 | TEHA Masterclass: Legal (constitutional) interpretation, social change, and the question of interdisciplinarity
12 November, 10:00–12:00 and 14:00–16:00 | Room A-447
The masterclass, led by Prof. Dieter Grimm (Humboldt University Berlin; former Justice of the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany), explores the role of legal interpretation in times of social change. It will examine different methods of interpretation, their strengths and limitations, and the need for interdisciplinary perspectives when understanding the law and its application.
Although rooted in constitutional law, the discussion will be highly relevant to scholars from other disciplines – including political science, sociology, social policy, and international relations – interested in how law interacts with politics and society. Participants from diverse academic backgrounds are warmly encouraged to join.
Prof. Dr. Dieter Grimm's scholarship focuses on constitutional history, theory, and comparative constitutionalism, as well as the constitutional dimensions of European integration. He has published widely, including Constitutionalism: Past, Present, and Future, and is a member of several national and international academies.
Programme:
- 10:15-11:45 Part I
- 11:45-14:15 break
- 14:15-15:45 Part II
Please register by 5th November for the masterclass .
Max participants: 20
27.11 | SOGOLAS TEHA research speed dating
We invite SOGOLAS researchers to come together, exchange ideas, and get to know their colleagues in order to gain a better understanding of who is working on what and who might be a good match for potential research collaborations. Since last academic year the SOGOLAS TEHA speed-dating event proved popular, we have planned three meetings for this semester at the ELU area.
SOGOLAS TEHA researchers’ experience-sharing masterclass "Application of Artificial Intelligence in Scientific Research" for SOGOLAS researchers
Conversations with people have led to the understanding that among our own researchers, there are many experimenters in this field, some of whom are already at an advanced level. In order to make the masterclass expertly insightful, we ask for your input – whether and how you use artificial intelligence in your daily research work (or if you can recommend a colleague from SOGOLAS whom you have noticed using AI).
To provide your input, please fill out questionnaire by October 10, 2025.
The masterclass will take place in November or December 2025, with the exact date and location to be confirmed after collecting inputs. If you have any questions, please write to: ingamaemets@tlu.ee
