A fight for historical truth

USUE Rector Yakov Silin met with students of the Crimean Law Institute, a branch of the University of the Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation.

 

The meeting took place as part of the International Forum “Nuremberg, Tokyo, Khabarovsk: World Practices in Condemning Extremism, Terrorism and Inciting Ethnic Hatred.” The students came to Yekaterinburg to take part in the reconstruction of the Nuremberg Trials - the international tribunal of the defeated Nazi leaders.

 

Most students plan to work in the prosecutor’s office after receiving their diplomas. They study the materials of historical affairs both for study and because of their civic position, considering it important to preserve historical memory. USUE Rector thanked the students and their mentors for such an initiative, noting that it was relevant not only to the Crimea.

 

“Patriotism at a state university is just necessary,” USUE Rector Yakov Silin says. “We are training business executives. They will rule tomorrow. They will have large teams under their control. Some of our graduates run organizations with tens of thousands of employees. How will a person administer if he does not understand who he is and what place he occupies in his country? Therefore, we cannot be indifferent to matters of preserving historical memory.”

 

The rector noted that for over 15 years, USUE had been running several educational programs lying at the confluence of law and economics, and expressed the hope that our university and the Crimean Law Institute could cooperate both in educational and scientific activities. In response, the Crimeans invited the USUE top management to the VII annual forum “The Nuremberg Trials: History and Modernity” to be held in December in Yalta.
