Summer School: Alternative Economic and Monetary Systems
AEMS is an academic Summer School that offers a new approach: An evaluation of economic alternatives that considers natural boundaries and the human factor to be equal parts of the equation. Our goal: To help solve some of societies’ problems by presenting viable alternatives to processes and developments that are putting enormous strains on economic, ecologic and social boundaries.

The Straniak Academy for Democracy and Human Rights was established in 2013 by the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Human Rights - Research Association in Vienna in cooperation with the Faculties of Law and Sociology of the University of Vienna and the Faculties of Law and Political Sciences of the University in Montenegro.
The name of the Academy refers to its main facilitator, the Hermann and Marianne Straniak Foundation. The implementation of the Straniak Academy is also supported by the Central European Initiative (CEI), the assurance company UNIQA, the agricultural company Agrana, the law firm Grilc Vouk Škof, and others. In 2015, the Academy will take place for the third time in Montenegro from 6 to 19 September 2015 in Ulcinj, in the hotel complex “Dvori Balsića” and “Palata Venezia”.
The Straniak Academy is aimed at students of different academic backgrounds who are about to graduate, as well as graduates standing at the beginning of their careers and is limited to 35 students, thus ensuring the interactive format. The lecturers come from the University of Vienna and the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Human Rights as well as from partner Universities and selected experts of national and international institutions, organisations and companies with relevant practical experiences.They teach in tandem, i.e. a lecturer from Vienna and a lecturer from a Western Balkan State jointly hold the lessons.
