Scope and Content

Ferencz describes his optimistic worldview to achieve world peace. He discusses his involvement at Nuremberg, in spearheading restitution programs in Germany, writing the authoritative book on Jewish forced labor, "Less Than Slaves" (1979), and in speaking to various groups of people about his unique structures for peace. Ferencz argues that a system of law, courts, and enforcement needs to be introduced and implemented in the international arena. He urges public involvement on every level.
