doc. dr. Gregor Maučec Visokošolski učitelj

Dr. Gregor Maučec is Lecturer in Law at the University of Liverpool’s School of Law and Social Justice where he teaches EU law, criminal law and land law. At the New University’s Faculty of Government and European Studies, he leads a module on Global Migration Law. He is also a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Amsterdam’s Faculty of Law and University of Maribor’s Faculty of Law where he works on his research project which explores the role that intuitions play in international criminal judging. Specifically, the project examines whether international judges make their judgments and decisions in predominantly intuitive rather than deliberative and reflective ways. Gregor holds a doctorate (PhD) in Law and a master’s degree in International Law. His research in international law and international adjudication combines empirical findings with theoretical and doctrinal legal investigations while using inspiration, methods and insights from social, behavioural and psychological sciences to cross traditional barriers. His writing and publications have focused on the international judicial function, and particularly how it is understood and carried out by the judges of different international adjudicative bodies; international judicial behaviour and decision-making; international criminal tribunals; compound and intersecting forms of discrimination in the context of mass atrocities; various transitional justice issues; and legal and human rights aspects of a migration-border defence nexus in the context of European integrated border management. He has published extensively on these topics and presented numerous conference and seminar papers. So far, Gregor has been a Principal Investigator in several research projects financed by the European Commission, the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) and the Slovenian Research and Innovation Agency (ARIS). He also sits on the editorial board of Book collection on International Law.
