Your year at the Pufendorf IAS

- when does what happen?

På svenska

The purpose of your time here at the Pufendorf IAS is to give you the space to explore the research problems which you described in your Theme or ASG application. As you know, we don’t expect deliverables, specific research output, but we do ask that you keep certain things in mind at specific times during your Pufendorf-year.
