Weidergutmachung - Making Right Again

Weidergutmachung - Making Right Again
A discussion on national and individual perceptions of personal compensation programs of the Federal Republic of Germany

In December 1951, the Federal Chancellor of Germany spoke of unthinkable crimes committed in the name of the German People. The German Nation was morally responsible for the rehabilitation of the Survivors and safeguarding of the memory of what had happened. This talk shall focus on the two main subjects of these endeavors: the Federal German State and the Holocaust survivors. Dr. iur. Avraham Weber will discuss policy towards the needs of survivors, towards the State of Israel, and toward the future. He will also look into the effects of these individual programs for the benefit of Holocaust Survivors upon the survivors themselves and their perception of the so-called assumption of responsibility on behalf of the Federal German Government.

PD hours and co-curricular credits will be provided.
