Panelists were selected by a committee of faculty members from Sociology and Anthropology. Dr. Haley Duschinski, Director of the Center for Law, Justice & Culture, will moderate the panel.

The panel is part of the Anthropology of International Justice Spring Series, sponsored by Anthropology Club; STAND Against Genocide; Students for Law, Justice & Culture; Student Senate; and the Center for Law, Justice & Culture.
