In Search of Accountability:
Justice after Nuremberg

Photo Gallery

On February 2, 2012, the Museum hosted a panel discussion with distinguished leaders in the field of international justice to assess whether a lasting system of accountability for genocide, ethnic cleansing, and crimes against humanity is finally coming into place. The program was cosponsored by the Museum, the Aspen Institute’s Justice & Society Program, and the United States Institute of Peace and made possible in part by the generous support of the Helena Rubinstein Fund.
