This elective course addresses the most sustainable concept of our economic activity: the non-production of new things. It focuses on the urgency and rediscovery of a culture of care, repair, reparability and upcycling to critically question the way we design, build and use our constructed environment. It combines methods from restoration and conservation with new ideas from a growing repair community. Using broken objects, each student will first identify, analyse and discuss the defect(s). After developing a repair concept, a complete restoration is to be realised under professional guidance. The aim is to come up with a coherent and consistent repair solution which, in the best case, will result in a technical and/or design improvement to the object.

The seminar combines input lectures with an exercise to make theoretical lessons usable for practical design solutions.
The seminar is supplemented by intensive self-study and presentations.

After successful completion of the course, students will be able to

Minimum 75% compulsory attendance and continuous assessment.
The final grade is calculated according to the weighting of the following components: final submission (60%), midterm presentation (20%) and final presentation (20%).

This seminar presents cutting-edge discussions in urban theory that shed light into globally and locally connected processes of urbanisation. In the face of increasing global challenges, it is incumbent upon designers to engage with climate change, uneven development, migration, economic crises and social conflicts. Cities and regions are key sites in which these challenges are staked, resulting in an uneven landscape of resources and opportunities.
The course therefore analyses state-of-the-art theoretical texts from fields such as urban studies and geography, in order to provide insight into the urbanisation processes that underlie contemporary urban life.

Ziel der Lehrveranstaltung ist es, den Studierenden die grundlegenden Kenntnisse der internationalen Vermögensplanung und -gestaltung unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des Erb-, Ehegüter-, Anfechtungs- und Insolvenzrechts auf nationaler und internationaler Ebene zu vermitteln.

Die Lehrveranstaltung behandelt folgende Themenfelder:

• Internationales Erb-, Ehegüter-, Anfechtungs- und Insolvenzrecht
• Asset Protection – Grundlagen und Strukturen
• Asset Protection im Scheidungsrecht
• Asset Protection bei Testamentsvollstreckung und Vollmacht
• Asset Protection – Erbrecht und Trust Litigation

Interaktive Vorlesungen, ergänzt durch Case Studies aus der Praxis; eingehende Diskussion unter Einbeziehung der Studierenden.

Ganz im Zeichen der Vermögensplanung und -nachfolge steht das achte Modul. So ist der erste Teil dem internationalen Erb- und Ehegüterrecht gewidmet. Den Studierenden werden zunächst die internationalen prozessrechtlichen Grundlagen Liechtensteins wie auch der umliegenden Länder (Deutschland, Österreich, Schweiz) im Hinblick auf das Ehe- und Ehegüterrecht eingehend erläutert, ebenso die internationalen Abkommen aus diesen Bereichen. Hierzu gehört auch die Feststellung der anwendbaren Rechtsnormen, deren Prüfung sowie die einzelnen Anknüpfungstatbestände. Im Anschluss wird das materielle Ehegüterrecht der einzelnen Rechtsordnungen sukzessive behandelt und einander gegenübergestellt. Auch im Hinblick auf das internationale Erbrecht werden zunächst die Abkommen sowie die liechtensteinischen kollisionsrechtlichen Bestimmungen intensiv erörtert. Im Besonderen wird sodann auf das internationale Erbrecht nach Stiftungen und Anstalten eingegangen, bevor die prozessuale Vorgehensweise erläutert wird. Ein Überblick über das internationale Insolvenz- und Anfechtungsrecht, insbesondere im Hinblick auf gesellschafts- und erbrechtliche Sachverhalte, rundet den ersten Teil ab. Im zweiten Teil liegt das Augenmerk auf den Möglichkeiten der Asset Protection, also dem Schutz erworbenen Vermögens vor dem Zugriff Dritter. Nachdem die Grund-lagen funktionierender Asset Protection (wie zum Beispiel die Zulässigkeit der Schiedsgerichtsbarkeit eines Asset Protection Trusts usw.) eingehend erörtert wurden, kommen die Möglichkeiten und Erfordernisse zunächst aus ehegüter-rechtlicher Sicht, sodann aus erbrechtlicher Perspektive zur Sprache. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei die Arbeit an konkreten, realen Fällen.

Schriftliche Prüfung à 90 Min.; hierin werden sämtliche Gebiete der zugehörigen einzelnen Lehrveranstaltungen abgedeckt

• The purpose of this course is twofold: First, invited talks by researchers from other institutions (and, occasionally, from the University of Liechtenstein) bring students in touch with cutting-edge research in their field. Second, students learn how to give an academic presentation of one of their research papers. Students will receive feedback on their performance. Our goal is to provide research colloquia for all specializations, but the course may not be offered for all specializations in each academic year. Students from two specializations may be gathered into one colloquium for organizational reasons. Key topics covered are: Current research in business economics Structure and content of an academic paper discussion

Presentations, discussions with feedback.

• After successful completion of the course, students will Professional competence Prepare and deliver a presentation of a research paper at a research seminar. - Social competence Interact with scientists in different phases of their career. Formulate critical questions in a neutral and professional manner. - Personal Competence Reflect on one’s own performance and professional behavior.
