Valerie Hebert teaches on genocide and the history of the Holocaust at the University of Toronto and has held fellowships from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and the Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.
"A thoughtful and sobering work. Hebert delivers a complicated story with clarity and balance: a story of noble ideals that fell short in practice, of national self-delusion and political compromise, of revealed truths that took generations to sink in, and of legal innovations that still affect us today." Geoffrey P. Megargee, author of Inside Hitler's High Command "Hebert tells a cautionary tale of direct relevance to the work of international prosecutors and does a fine job of highlighting the conflict between justice and politics in moments of democratic transition." Lawrence Douglas, author of The Memory of Judgment: Making Law and History in the Trials of the Holocaust"
