Die Grundrechtskonkurrenz

In many cases the complainant invokes in his favour more than one constitutional right. These cases raise questions of constitutional rights concurrence. The thesis is a contribution to the general concurrence doctrine of constitutional rights. It focuses on the system of constitutional rights warranting liberties of the Basic Law of the Federal Republic of Germany. The principles theory of constitutional rights and findings of the theories of argumentation and coherence serve as theoretical fundament. In particular it deals with the issue of a reinforcement between constitutional rights. The jurisprudence of the Federal Constitutional Court and the legal literature are analysed with the background of the theoretical preliminary works. If this thesis succeeds, it offers a basis for further research in the area of constitutional rights concurrence and provides more clarity for the application of the law in cases of constitutional rights accumulation.
