The Philosophical Café in the Blue Note cultural lounge is dedicated to socially relevant topics, which are examined from a philosophical perspective by the four retired professors Harald Kerber, Reinhold Mokrosch, Arnim Regenbogen and Elk Franke. The format is aimed at all interested citizens, regardless of their theoretical or practical knowledge of philosophy. It is intended to encourage philosophizing and reflection and facilitate discussions between the guests.
Event on September 14, 2025
A constitutional state is determined by the belief that the law will also ensure justice. However, everyday life in society shows that the legal system cannot prevent injustice or can even reinforce it.
How should the role of legal equality be assessed? Can it be said that a positive law is a just law if it remains related to the basic norms of a democratic constitution?
The PhiloCafe will discuss the relationship between “positive law” and the “sense of justice”.
