The Walter Eucken Institut is a center of excellence for research in constitutional economics and ordoliberal thinking in the tradition of the Freiburg School. Questions about the constitutional foundation and the maintenance and development of a market order are at the core of our research agenda. The institute aims to bring new economic ideas and ordoliberal thinking into debates in academia, and the public, private and non-profit sectors.
