English summary: The papers held at a conference in 2012 on the subject of Law and Arbitrariness cover the subject using a broad spectrum of individual fields of law and historic events as examples. They deal with the ambivalence of the concept of arbitrariness as an abuse of power on the one hand and as free will as defined by Kant on the other hand. In this debate, the authors discuss humanitarian intervention in the case of a large-scale violation of human rights from the perspective of international law. German description: Recht und Willkur war das Thema des Akademientages 2012 in Hannover. Die hier abgedruckten Vortrage und das Streitgesprach fachern das Thema in einzelnen Rechtsgebieten und am Beispiel historischer Ereignisse naher auf. Behandelt wird die Ambivalenz des Willkurbegriffs als Machtmissbrauch einerseits und andererseits als Willensfreiheit im Sinne von Kant. Es geht um Revolutionen gegen Willkur mit der Gefahr neuer Willkur, um Rechtsstaat und Unrechtsstaat und um die Gefahrdung der Vermogensordnung durch private Spekulation und staatliche Uberschuldung. Angesichts neuer Herausforderungen des internationalen Menschenrechtsschutzes werden Ausweitungstendenzen bezuglich der Inhalte, der Adressaten und der Schutzmechanismen beurteilt. In einem Streitgesprach werden humanitare Interventionen gegen Menschenrechtsverletzungen im grossen Stil unter volkerrechtlichen Gesichtspunkten erortert.
