About the research of CRBS

CRBS stimulates, initiates and organizes legal area transcending, interdisciplinary and internationally orientated research on fundamental questions of all legal areas.

The three legal area transcending, interdisciplinary and internationally orientated research lines are brought together in three research centres:

 

1. Research Centre Seeking justice and finding justice: about the process of administration of justice;

2. Research Centre Securing public interest in private arrangements;

3. Research Centre Convergence and divergence in shared legal orders.

 

CRBS actively participates in a Legal Research Network with the universities of Ghent, Uppsala en Turku. Yearly, the Network organizes a conference and a summer school.

 

Within the Research Centre Securing public interest in private arrangements, the Groningen Centre of Energy Law (GCEL) coordinates all legal research involving (parts) of the energy sector.
