Awards for BGHS alumnus Edvaldo Moita
Edvaldo Moita was awarded two prizes this year for his dissertation successfully defended in 2021. First, the Brazilian Association for Philosophy of Law and Sociology of Law (ABRAFI) – a national section of the Internationale Vereinigung für Rechts- und Sozialphilosophie (IVR) – awarded him the prize for the best dissertation in 2021. In September, he also received the “European Award for Legal Theory”, a prize awarded by the European Academy of Legal Theory (EALT). The award ceremony will take place on 24 November at Goethe University Frankfurt.
Last Year, Edvaldo Moita also prevailed against the competition and received a professorship for legal theory and philosophy of law at Fluminense Federal University (UFF), Brazil's largest university.
Congratulations on these successes!
