Main Research:

Academic Background:

András Csúri (1977) studied law, European law, and German economic law at the University of Szeged (Hungary). He completed his Ph.D. thesis on "Criminal law aspects of young adulthood" and graduated summa cum laude. His doctoral thesis presented a detailed comparative study of legal systems in German-speaking countries and argued for the adequate implementation of the category "young adult" into the Hungarian criminal law. Between 2002 and 2009, Dr. Csúri held courses on criminal law (general and special part) at the University of Szeged as well as specialized courses entitled "Post-evaluation of state crimes," "Juvenile law," and "Introduction to legal German."

Since 2008, he has been working at the Max Planck Institute for Foreign and International Criminal Law in Freiburg (Germany) as a senior researcher. His main research concentrates on comparative law (International Max Planck Information System for Comparative Criminal Law), on European criminal law (working group member of the project on EU model rules of criminal investigation and prosecution for the procedure of the proposed European Public Prosecutor’s Office as well as co-editor of the journal eucrim), and on juvenile justice (especially regarding young adults).

The comparative findings of his study on the "Regulations of young adulthood in Europe" were awarded first prize in the economics and law section by the Regional Section of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (2007). He was the recipient of research grants from the Max Planck Society (2008), the DAAD (1998 and 2004), and the ÖAD (2001 and 2006).

Dr. Csúri has held guest lectures at the Universities of Cologne (Germany) and Krakow (Poland) and contributes to the work of UNICEF Hungary as a volunteer.
