A Landmark for Freedom and Justice

Symposium on the the Contribution of the Eichmann Trial to International Criminal Law

Hardly any other case tried in an Israeli court has had as far-reaching implications as the 1961 Eichmann trial. This was emphasized during a symposium organized by KAS Jerusalem and its partner, the Minerva Center for Human Rights. International experts and approximately 200 participants discussed how the trial influenced the development of both international criminal law and socio-psychological identities in Israel and the world. The symposium was held to honor Gabriel Bach, the deputy prosecutor in the Eichmann trial, who celebrated his 80th Birthday. Justice Bach has been a close partner of KAS Jerusalem for many years.

Simulating the European Parliament

KAS-HKI Workshop

The subject of Human Rights in Iran is a sensitive issue for the European Parliament members, and though there is a clear consensus on the fact there are severe human rights violations in Iran, the question how to deal with the human rights violations in Iran is very controversial both between political groups, as well as within political groups. Thus, on December 2nd, 2007, in cooperation with the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung, 19 students of the European Forum and the Helmut Kohl Institute for European Studies of the Hebrew University participated in a challenging exercise of simulating the European Parliament debate and resolution on breaches of human rights in Iran. The students stepped into the shoes of Members of the European Parliament, and had held a heated debate on the situation in Iran, and the proper EU response, attitude and action vis-a-vis Iran.
