“Könnte das auch bei uns passieren? Dienstpflicht und ethische Verantwortung”

Against the backdrop of current developments in the United States, this event explores how democratic institutions – including those in Austria – can come under pressure, the role of obedience and responsibility within law enforcement and government institutions, and how democracy can be effectively safeguarded.

Art Installation during the International Conference "Making Sense of America - Conversations on Matter & Methods"

As part of the "Making Sense of America - Conversations on Matter & Methods" at University of Innsbruck (2-3 July), Mahshid Mayar and Philip Leonhardt are also organizing a critical arts installation, exhibiting students' experimentation with erasure techniques on four-page copies of the Declaration of Independence. On the occasion of the 250th anniversary of the United States, transforming the country's foundational document promises to be a thought-provoking endeavor for students and visitors of the art installation.

2nd & 3rd of July 2026 | University of Innsbruck
