SUMMARY:Nuremberg Symposium\, The Ethics and Philosophy of Prosecution: Justice vs. Revenge
DESCRIPTION:Eighty years after the Nuremberg Trials\, prosecutors remain at the heart of international justice. Yet the line between pursuing justice and seeking revenge is often fraught with complexity. This panel explores the philosophical\, ethical\, and strategic dilemmas prosecutors face when responding to mass atrocity\, war crimes\, and crimes against humanity. Through a reflective discussion\, the panelists will examine how principles of fairness\, accountability\, and deterrence are weighed against political realities and public expectations\, and what it truly means to pursue justice in a fractured world. \nSpeakers– John Q. Barrett – Professor of Law\, St. John’s University; Elizabeth S. Lenna Fellow\, Robert H. Jackson Center– David M. Crane – Founding Chief Prosecutor\, Special Court for Sierra Leone; Professor of Practice\, Syracuse University College of Law

SUMMARY:25 Years of Asking Questions: "A Republic\, If You Can Keep It"
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin Franklin’s famous challenge\, “a republic\, if you can keep it”\, feels especially urgent today. Join us for a timely conversation about the health of democracy: the pressures it faces\, the sources of resilience\, and the practical steps citizens and institutions can take to strengthen civic life. In an era marked by distrust\, polarization\, and rising authoritarianism\, where do our democracies stand today? This talk examines Jackson’s warnings\, ideals\, and enduring belief in constitutional stewardship\, and asks how citizens\, institutions\, and communities can rise to meet this pivotal moment. \nAbout the SpeakerPeter C. Cohen is a seasoned attorney with more than forty years of experience in civil litigation\, appellate advocacy\, and legal writing\, with deep expertise in the jurisprudence of the U.S. Supreme Court. Over his career\, he wrote and edited more than a thousand briefs for courts at every level\, distilling complex constitutional questions into clear\, persuasive arguments. He also served as an adjunct professor of law\, teaching landmark Supreme Court decisions and helping students\, both American and international\, understand constitutional foundations\, separation of powers\, due process\, and the limits of presidential authority. \nMotivated by growing concerns about democratic erosion\, Cohen retired from active practice in 2025 to devote himself fully to researching and writing In the Supreme Court’s Own Words: First Principles for Checking Presidential Power and Preserving the Republic. The book reflects a lifetime of legal inquiry and a career-long commitment to the rule of law\, civic education\, and the Constitution’s role in safeguarding a republic of laws.
