Panel debate with Professor Martin Burgi (LMU), Professor Florian Englmaier (LMU), Professor Christoph Knill (LMU), Professor Monika Schnitzer (LMU) and Jens-Christian Rabe (SZ).
At every turn, we encounter the perception that bureaucratic obstacles are constantly on the rise. In Germany, excessive bureaucracy is today regarded as the number one obstacle to growth – even ahead of high taxes and social security contributions, the crumbling infrastructure and high energy costs. Tonight’s high-caliber panel discusses how bureaucratic systems can be made fit for the future. But it also asks whether these systems can serve as a bulwark against attacks on democracy.
This evening’s event is part of the CAS series of lectures on The Future of Bureaucracy in the winter semester 2025/26.
Prior registration is required. The event will be held in German. For more information, please visit the CAS website.
