It is ofte n claimed that prosecuting past atrocities\nis a necessary and direct step on the path toward political\nrenewal. Germany after WW II is often toute d as the most successful\nexample of such transitional justice.\nProfessor Devin Pendas offers a close look at Germany's\nexperience of transitional justice after the war and reveals an\naltogether more complicated and tro ubling picture\, one in which law\ncontributed as much to the consolidatio n of new forms of\ndictatorship as it did to the spread of democracy.\nCon ference will last 45 minutes\, followed by a 15-minute\nquestion period. R eception to follow at 6 pm.\n DTSTART:20081112T220000Z DTEND:20081112T230000Z LOCATION:Chancellor Day Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 1W9\, 3644 rue Peel SUMMARY:Law and Democracy: Transitional Justice in Germany\, 1945-1950 URL:/channels/event/law-and-democracy-transitional-jus tice-germany-1945-1950-100930 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
