DESCRIPTION:The CHLRP welcomes Nergis Canefe\, Associate Professor\, Center
  for Refugee Studies\, Osgoode Hall Law School.\n\nProfessor Nergis Canefe
 ’s talk revisits the legacy of the Nuremberg legacy from the perspective o
 f collective responsibility and culpability. Due to the extensive the natu
 re of harm involved in historic injustices\, Professor Canefe posits that 
 individual responsibility argument waged against historic justice claims c
 arries forward a great deficit. Historic injustices and the harms they gen
 erate are best understood as collective harms. The response to such harms 
 must have a collective component as well\, and the remedies offered are on
 ly meaningful in a social and political context.\n\nOne common form of suc
 h harm\, constitutive harm\, significantly differs from the aggregative ac
 counts of harm generally used by standard individual criminal litigation p
 rocesses. It is the type of harm that people suffer as members of historic
 ally wronged groups and communities and often in the hands of the state th
 at was poised to protect them. Therefore\, historic injustice cases requir
 e a different account of responsibility\, one that cannot be harnessed sol
 ely based on individual responsibility argumentation within the context of
  domestic or international criminal justice jurisprudence.\n\nHer article 
 urges that we make room for considerations pertaining to collective respon
 sibility as a moral obligation\, thus providing a context within which leg
 al judgment for egregious crimes could be firmly situated and historicized
