The volume illustrates to students the technique of case handling in social law scenarios, supports and promotes in-depth study of social law within the framework of specialized training, and thus serves as the ideal complement to the specialized textbook 'Social Law' by Waltermann. The exam preparation course includes 24 thoroughly solved case studies on current, publicly debated topics that lead to fundamental questions of social security. Each case is based on relevant decisions from the highest courts. They were selected to demonstrate the diverse interconnections of social law with nearly all areas of law. Therefore, the case solutions typically involve substantive connections to labor, private, criminal, procedural, administrative, constitutional, and European law.
