Background

Professor Bohlander has been the International Co-Investigating Judge in the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia since 2015, of which nearly four years full-time in Phnom Penh. From 2017 until 2022, he was also an international judge of the Kosovo Specialist Chambers.  He joined Durham University in 2004 as a full professor, having previously been a life-tenured member of the German judiciary since 1991, where he heard civil and criminal cases at trial and appellate level. He has experience in transitional justice and institution-building projects in several legal systems. He was instructed as an expert in German criminal law by the UK General Medical Council and by the Criminal Court of Appeal at Leeuwarden in the Netherlands.

Professor Bohlander has published widely on German law, English and Welsh criminal law, comparative and international criminal law, and Islamic law. His publications have been translated into Chinese, Farsi, French, Khmer, Spanish and Turkish. His books on German criminal law and procedure are main reference works on the topic in English, together with the series Substantive Issues in Criminal Law, which he has co-edited with Professor Alan Reed since 2011.

His work has been cited over 85 times by or before national appellate, supreme and constitutional courts and law commissions in Australia, Colombia, Germany, Ireland, Kosovo, New Zealand, Scotland, and Texas, as well as international or hybrid courts such as the International Criminal Court, the International Criminal Tribunals for Yugoslavia and Rwanda and their Residual Mechanism, the Special Court for Sierra Leone, the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia, as well as official organisations or bodies such as UNDP, OSCE, the European Commission, and the German Federal Parliament. 

He has spoken at numerous conferences, workshops, seminars and practitioner training events in over twenty countries, including at the US Military Academy at West Point. From 2010 to 2014, he held the Visiting Chair in Criminal Law at the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen in the Netherlands. In 2012, he was the first non-Muslim visiting scholar to teach at the Faculty of Law of Al-Azhar University in Cairo, when he was also granted a private audience with the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar.

Current work

Since 2020, his main research focus has been on the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) and Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), in particular the consequences of a potential contact with extraterrestrial or non-human intelligence (NHI) for human law and society in the wider sense, including the emerging field of ethics of contact and the problems arising from the potential epistemic gaps between human and NHI ethical perspectives. 

He supports efforts to move the debate away from the purely anecdotal, auto-biographical, or academic sphere towards a practical engagement by officials and political decision-makers. In 2025, he led an international group of academics in a submission on SETI and UAP research to the House of Lords Select Committee on the UK's engagement with space. He was the initiator of the Declaration on SETI and UAP Research of 24 April 2025, which has been translated into 20 languages and endorsed by 460 people worldwide. He also co-organised an international symposium on the academic revival of UAP experiencer research in July 2026. 

His research on SETI and UAP issues has been referenced and discussed widely in Asia, Europe, Latin America, Russia, the UK, as well as the US and Canada, in academia and outside, including online and print media, radio, podcasts, community discussion fora such as Facebook, Reddit or X, and on individual social media platforms.

The results of a global survey on expectations about human life after contact with extraterrestrial civilisations were published as a preprint in October 2026. The survey will be an open access chapter in the book “Human Life after Contact with Extraterrestrial Civilisations - Interdisciplinary perspectives on the consequences of first contact", co-edited by Michael Bohlander, Andreas Anton, John Elliott, and Amber Dagnall, PhD candidate at Durham Law School. It is in press and forthcoming with Routledge Publishers in 2027.

He started a new research project in October 2026, interrogating the topics of plant intelligence, consciousness, and ethics.
