CONCLUSION ............................................... 309 " The idea for this essay began at a discussion of the Touvier trial with Professor Tigar's students at the Facut de Droit at Aix-en-Provence, with the assistance of Professor Andr6 Baldous. Ms. Casey provided further impetus for it by her research assistance on international human rights issues, and continued with research and editorial work as the essay developed. Ms. Giordani researched French law and procedure and obtained original sources. Mr. Mardemootoo worked on further research and assisted in formulating the issues. The translations of most French materials were initially done by Professor Tigar and reviewed by Ms. Giordani and Mr. Mardemootoo. As we were working on the project, the Texas InternationalLaw Journaleditors told us of Ms. Finkelstein's article, and we decided to turn our effort into a complementary piece that drew some slightly different conclusions. if Professor of Law and holder of the Joseph D.

Central Europe Federal Republic of Germany Domestic Affairs s JULY 1, 1979 Karl Carstens of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) took office as the new president of the Federal Republic. He had been elected by the federal parliament to succeed Walter Scheel. Also in July CDU and the Christian Social Union (CSU), the opposition parties in the federal lower house, chose Franz Josef Strauss as their candidate for chancellor in the 1980 elections.

Central Europe West Germany FOREIGN POLICY wTHEN CHANCELLOR Ludwig Erhard's coalition government sud- denly collapsed in October 1966, none of the Federal Republic's major for- eign policy goals, such as the reunification of Germany and the improvement of relations with its Eastern neighbors, with France, NATO, the Arab coun- tries, and with the new African nations had as yet been achieved. Relations with the United States What actually brought the political and economic crisis into the open and hastened Erhard's downfall was that he returned empty-handed from his Sep- tember visit to President Lyndon B. Johnson. Erhard appealed to Johnson for an extension of the date when payment of $3 billion was due for military equipment which West Germany had bought from the United States to bal- ance dollar expenses for keeping American troops in West Germany. (By the end of 1966, Germany paid DM2.9 billion of the total DM5.4 billion, provided in the agreements between the United States government and the Germans late in 1965. The remaining DM2.5 billion were to be paid in 1967.) During these talks Erhard also expressed his government's wish that American troops in West Germany remain at their present strength. Al- though Erhard's reception in Washington and Texas was friendly, he gained no major concessions. Late in October the United States and the United Kingdom began talks with the Federal Republic on major economic and military problems. Relations with France When Erhard visited France in February, President Charles de Gaulle gave reassurances that France would not recognize the East German regime, that he would advocate the cause of Germany in Moscow, and that he would 349 350 / AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK, 1967 approve intensified political and cultural cooperation between the six Com- mon Market powers—France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. -

Lucie Aubrac : "Non Au Nazisme"
Lucie Aubrac : "Non au nazisme" Lucie Aubrac, mère de famille, professeur d’histoire-géographie à Lyon, a participé à la Résistance sous la Seconde Guerre Mondiale, spécialisant ses actions dans les évasions de camarades. Tout commença avec Raymond, son mari juif, arrêté par la Gestapo. Elle parvint à le tirer des pattes de Klaus Barbie au prix d’un plan rocambolesque, n’hésitant pas à usurper une fausse identité. Aidés de nombreux autres résistants, Lucie et Raymond publient des tracts, des journaux, contribuent à l’évasion d’opposants au régime, comme eux. Mais malgré leurs changements d’identités, Raymond est arrêté plusieurs fois. Lucie va tout faire pour qu’il retrouve la liberté. Volontaire et loyale, Lucie Aubrac incarne, sans doute mieux qu’aucun(e) autre, la résistance à l’oppression. ♠♠♠ 1.

BICICLETA III Reflexions Sobre El Internacionalismo 8
III Reflexiones sobre el internacionalismo Osvaldo Bayer Imagen prohibida de Alemania Hace unos meses, el Instituto de Relaciones exteriores de Alemania, invitó al historiador cineasta argentino Osvaldo Bayer (autor de La Patagonia Rebelde ) a participar en un encuentro entre intelectuales alemanes y latinoamericanos. Se le pidió un trabajo sobre "La imagen alemana para un exiliado " pidiéndole que se expresara de forma personal y crítica, en base a su propia experiencia. Pero el sin duda esperado elogio de la democracia alemana en contraste con la sangrienta dictadura de Videla, no se produjo, y el trabajo de Osvaldo Bayer fue rechazado y devuelto con una carta del Director Organismo Günter W. Lorenz en la que le acusaba de formular «aborrecibles difamaciones la R.F.A.». Reproducimos el texto de 1a ponencia rechazada por su indudable valor testimonial e informativo. ¿Qué valor puede tener la opinión de un exiliado latinoamericano acerca de Alemania? ¿No significa esto pedir la opinión de un enfermo? Una opinión que puede variar entre el ditirambo de quien de pronto se halla a salvo y no teme ya oír el timbre de la puerta de su casa, con el consiguiente agradecimiento a la tierra que lo ha recogido; o, todo lo contrario, una acusación emocional, amarga, desesperada por saber que justamente aquí se elabora el sistema que ha hecho posible la tragedia del asesinato o la prisión de los amigos y familiares. De ver -en ese caso-en cada alemán el responsable de todo lo que ocurre a miles de kilómetros de distancia. Al decir esto último ya estamos en la dualidad vivencial del exiliado latinoamericano que se ve obligado a vivir en cualquier país industrial de occidente. -
Report to the Public on the Work of the 2019 Proceedings of the Symposium Held on November 15, 2019
Commission pour l’indemnisation des victimes de spoliations intervenues du fait des législations antisémites en vigueur pendant l’Occupation Report to the public on the work of the 2019 Proceedings of the symposium held on November 15, 2019 Speech by French President Jacques Chirac, on July 16, 1995, at the commemoration of the Vel’ d’Hiv’ roundup (July 16, 1942) Excerpts « In the life of a nation, there are times that leave painful memories and damage people’s conception of their country. It is difficult to evoke these moments because we can never find the proper words to describe their horror or to express the grief of those who experienced their tragedy. They will carry forever, in their souls and in their flesh, the memory of these days of tears and shame. [… ] On that day, France, land of the Enlightenment, of Human Rights, of welcome and asylum, committed the irreparable. Breaking its word, it handed those who were under its protection over to their executioners. [… ] Our debt to them is inalienable. [… ] In passing on the history of the Jewish people, of its sufferings and of the camps. In bearing witness again and again. In recognizing the errors of the past, and the errors committed by the State. In concealing nothing about the dark hours of our history, we are simply standing up for a vision of humanity, of human liberty and dignity. We are thus struggling against the forces of darkness, which are constantly at work. [… ] Let us learn the lessons of history. Let us refuse to be passive onlookers, or accomplices, of unacceptable acts. -
