A different kind of history – a lecture competition between scientists to win the audience's favour.
Thursday, 20 November 2025, 7:30 p.m.
The historic event of the first international criminal tribunal in which leading figures of a state where sentenced for crimes against peace, war crimes and crimes against humanity has many facets. It was a means of occupation policy, a breakthrough in legal history and at the same time a diplomatic masterpiece in view of the differing interests of the Allied powers.
The trial documented the criminal history of Nazi Germany and its allies very quickly after the end of the war and with astonishing accuracy.
In the History Slam, moderated by Michael Jakob, this historic event will be revisited on its 80. Jubilee with easy to understand and entertaining lectures.

Helen Begovic, game developer, Playing History
