David Scheffer @ University of Chicago Law School
Tomorrow night, Northwestern University law professor David Scheffer discusses his new book All the Missing Souls: A Personal History of the War Crimes Tribunals at the University of Chicago Law School. Scheffer spearheaded the war crimes tribunal for the former Yugoslavia in 1993. Luis Moreno-Ocampo, chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, says "David Scheffer tells the inside story of the creation of international justice for victims of atrocity crimes. As the picture of astronauts walking on the moon embodied the evolution of technology, this book captures eight years of a controversial process that is changing humanity forever." University of Chicago Law School, 1111 E. 60th St., Thursday, January 12 at 6pm.
