T2 - Zeitschrift für internationale und digitale Kommunikation: Nachhaltigkeitsperspektiven - Journal of International and Digital Communication: Sustainability Perspectives N2 - The study traces the development of compulsory vaccination in Germany against the background of political discussion and legislative activities, focusing on the area of tension between state health protection and the right to medical self-determination in the context of constitutional balancing. It is based on the assumption that the right to medical self-determination traditionally dominates state decisions in a democratic constitutional state and that the scope for decision-making is constantly being further contoured in the face of current challenges.
