The Foundation is guided by the principles of political neutrality and impartiality, independence, local ownership and academic excellence. RT ≠ Endorsement mpfpr.de/legal-notice/
For the Foundation, Professor Frowein’s legacy is inextricably linked to his role as a ‘founding father’ of the Max Planck Yearbook of United Nations Law (UNYB).
The Foundation will strive to carry forward the remarkable legacy and impact of Professor Frowein, who will be greatly missed.
@mpfpr.bsky.social mourns the loss of Prof. Dr. Dres. h.c. Jochen Abr. Frowein.
Prof. Frowein was one of Germany’s most distinguished experts in public international and constitutional law, leaving behind an indelible mark on the global legal landscape.
