Then it explores Amoris Laetitia, the papal exhortation from Pope Francis on marriage, and the various major responses to it, with the issue of marital indissolubility at...

Wie kann man den Prozess der europäischen Integration erklären und was folgt daraus für seine weitere Entwicklung? Namhafte Vertreter der Geschichtswissenschaft, der Wirtschaftswissenschaft, der Politikwissenschaft, der Rechtswissenschaft und der Soziologie erläutern, welche Beiträge ihre Disziplinen zur Erklärung des europäischen Integrationsprozesses entwickelt haben und diskutieren die Möglichkeiten ihrer Verknüpfung zu einer interdisziplinären Integrationstheorie. Die Antriebskräfte der europäischen Integration kommen dabei ebenso in den Blick wie die Entwicklungsdynamik der europäischen Institutionen, der Wandel von Staatlichkeit in Europa und das Demokratieproblem in der Europäischen Union. Konzepte und Ergebnisse der Disziplinen werden zu einer gemeinsamen Integrationswissenschaft verbunden.
