The paper is based on the assumption that academic freedom is of paramount importance for current and future research as well as for teaching at universities, in Europe and worldwide. Academic freedom is not only seen as a goal in itself. It is important especially since it makes it possible for universities to serve the common good of society through searching for and disseminating knowledge and understanding, and through fostering independent thinking and expression in academic staff and students.
