Abstract painting "Collision" (2022) by Ismail Noh, characterized by expressive brushwork and a dynamic color palette of blues, oranges, yellows, and blacks. The composition suggests fluid motion and energetic interaction between forms, with sweeping gestural marks creating visual tension and movement throughout the canvas.

Two men in business suits standing in front of the Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law building. On the left is Professor Armin von Bogdandy wearing a dark blue suit with a blue tie and sunglasses. On the right is Philipp Sauter wearing a gray suit with a red tie and white pocket square. Both men are smiling and positioned directly in front of the institute's glass facade, with the Max Planck Institute logo and German text visible on the building behind them.

🎓 Congrats Dr. Philipp Sauter! His PhD bridges physics + international law: "Fusion Energy in Nuclear Weapons Law" reveals legal blind spots as fusion approaches commercial viability. New treaties needed to ensure clean energy serves peace, not proliferation.

Quote graphic with white serif text reading “When international law norms are invoked so erratically, it stealthily undermines the very notion of law.” — Anne Peters, over a semi‑transparent teal overlay on a photo of a war‑damaged high‑rise apartment building with shattered facades and exposed concrete in Kyiv, Ukraine; orange arrow motif in the upper-left corner.

Do rules still matter when great powers stop pretending? @annepetersmpil.bsky.social argues yes: even cynical legal talk restrains power. Hypocrisy can keep norms alive; silence kills them.

Mutual citation is more than a footnote: @floriankriener.bsky.social ( #MPILHeidelberg ) explains how the @echr.coe.int and Inter-American Court are weaving a transatlantic fabric of human rights law through active, reciprocal engagement. How can this model grow?

La cita mutua es más que una referencia: @floriankriener.bsky.social ( #MPILHeidelberg ) explica cómo TEDH y Corte IDH tejen un entramado transatlántico de derechos humanos a través de un diálogo activo y recíproco. ¿Cómo puede crecer este modelo?

Anne Peters stands at the center, holding a red diploma tube and a framed picture as she receives the honorary doctorate from the University of Vienna. To her left, Dean of the Faculty of Law Brigitta Zöchlin-Jud applauds in academic regalia. To her right, University of Vienna Rector Sebastian Schütze is also applauding. The background features a wood-paneled ceremonial hall.
