Professor Daniel Göler
Professorship of European Politics
Our daily work deals fundamentally with all aspects of European integration. Among other things, the chair holder works on issues relating to the Common Foreign, Security and Defence Policy, the political system of the EU, including institutional reform issues, and the legitimacy and acceptance of European regulation. We also deal with issues relating to relations between the European Union and the countries of the Western Balkans and Central Asia, the democratic legitimacy of the European Union, and strategic culture in European countries. Our work and our main topics are international in nature, which is why international academic networking with colleagues from various regions of the world is particularly important to us. We are especially proud to have been awarded the ‘Jean Monnet Chair’ distinction since 2011. This award, presented by the European Commission, requires not only excellent teaching but also outstanding research activities.
