Hans Kelsen: Professor Emeritus, International Law, UC Berkeley. Professor Hans Kelsen was a Jewish Austrian-American jurist and has had vast experiences teaching in the University of Vienna and the University of Geneva in Switzerland. This particular lecture,"What is Justice", Professor Kelsen explains the relationship and distinctions between truth and justice. "Justice is primarily a possible, but not a necessary quality of a social order, regulation the mutual relations of man". -Kelsen
Hans Kelsen has been associated with U.C. Berkeley since he came here as Visiting Professor in 1942-43, before which he was at Wellesley and at Harvard, and prior to that a legal scholar widely known and appreciated both as teacher in universities and as governmental adviser in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. He is known as the leader of juristic thought in Central Europe and one of the chief influences of Continental Europe, whose neo-Kantian normative logicism is widely discussed. Professor Kelsen is the author of several hundred articles and many books, with translations in more than sixteen languages.
