| The Institute from its foundation in 1973 has been organised as a
sociological research institution outside the university. The research team is
comprised of different disciplines from sociology to law and political science.
Key areas of research are institutions of social control, law in the books and
law in action, crime and (in)security, mediation and social exclusion. Beyond
their academic research the members of the institute are working as lecturers at
different universities and as consultants for different organisations.
