Robert Redslob (3 February 1882 – 6 June 1962) was a German-French constitutional and public international law-scientist who was critical of the French constitution in the early twentieth century.
He was born in Straßburg in Elsass-Lothringen.
From 1900 to 1906 he studied Law (inter alia) in Straßburg and in Berlin.
In 1913 he accepted a position as professor at the University of Rostock, and after the (First) World War he returned to Strasbourg to the newly established (French) University of Strasbourg. Redslob's ideas from his work Die parlamentarische Regierung in ihrer wahren und in ihrer unechten Form from 1918 had a remarkable influence on the German Weimar constitution of 1919.
(The German title means ‘The parliamentary government in its true form and in its false (imperfect, incorrect) form’.
The addition to the title: Eine vergleichende Studie über die Verfassungen von England, Belgien, Ungarn, Schweden und Frankreich is ‘A comparative survey of the constitutions of England, Belgium, Hungary, Sweden and France’.) In his capacity as a professor at the Hague Academy of International Law, Redslob introduced the concept of heimat in relation to international law in 1931.
