We are hosting visiting researcher Jonathan Drücker, PhD researcher at Augsburg University, in October-November for a few weeks research stay.
He presents himself: “Currently, I am working on my PhD-thesis which deals with a jurisdiction over companies based in non-member states by using their EU based parent company as an `anchor defendant´ in human rights litigation cases. As the Dutch law has the reputation of being on the frontier of development when it comes to corporate responsibility, I am very fortunate to be hosted by the Erasmus University Rotterdam for a two week research visit, which enables me to develop a comparative approach in respect of jurisdiction and private enforcement. I want to thank the University, notably Professor Xandra Kramer and her team for the friendly invitation and for making my visit possible on short notice.
I am looking forward to broaden my horizon by discussing thoughts and ideas with international experts and finding different legal perspectives and solutions for social and economic problems raised by globalisation and transnational supply chains in the field of international civil procedure law in an enriching and diverse environment.”
