On the occasion of its 110th anniversary, Goethe University Frankfurt released a paper outlining its positioning in the area of tension between science’s social responsibility, academic freedom and freedom of opinion. Its main message: the university offers science a space for autonomy and creativity while simultaneously defending it against non-scientific interests. However, this autonomy also has its limits and requires responsible handling, both on the part of the university as well as its members and affiliates. The paper supplements the university's mission statement and specifies the rights and obligations both of the university and its academics, as derived from Germany’s Basic Law and other legal norms.
