About

Modern societies are referred to as “decision societies”. On the one hand the number of opportunities to choose between options is growing. On the other hand, the cases and instances in which individuals or collective agents are forced to make decisions are increasing as well. Overall, the complexity and scope of decision-making processes seems to rise in many areas of modern societies.
Not only modern societies, but also decision-centered research is confronted with new questions due to global crises and technical innovations.

The Center for Decision Research, founded in 2018, wants to deal with these challenges by creating spaces for interdisciplinary exchange in decision-centered research.

Research

The Center for Decision Research aims to bring together research on decision-making from various fields. It offers a forum for researchers to connect, to share and discuss new ideas and projects and to initiate new research collaborations.

Members

The Center for Decision Research brings together researchers from various academic disciplines, ranging from philosophy, theoretical physics, psychology, economics, law, political science, sociology, mathematics, computer science and neurobiology.

Working Groups

The Center for Decision Research is based on interdisciplinary working groups. Our aim is to study decision-related topics from different perspectives, relating expertise from the humanities and social sciences with approaches from the natural sciences. The aim is to create a more integrated perspective and to create a network of researchers from a wide range of disciplines.
