Raphael Lemkin Guardians of the Rule of Law Series

ALI president and director of the Bolch Judicial Institute David F. Levi and Michael P. Scharf of Case Western Reserve University School of Law recently sat down with Benjamin B. Ferencz, the last living Nuremberg Trial prosecutor and an icon in the field of international justice, for the first installment of the Raphael Lemkin Guardians of the Rule of Law Series. 

The Raphael Lemkin Rule of Law Guardian series is sponsored by the Bolch Judicial Institute and honors those who have contributed to the preservation and advancement of the rule of law by highlighting their work through interviews, oral histories, and other programs. The program is named for Raphael Lemkin, a Duke Law faculty member who escaped Europe during WWII and through research, advocacy, and teaching developed both the term and the concept of genocide.
