History of the Cleveringa Lecture

The Cleveringa Lecture derives its name from Rudolph Cleveringa, LL.M., Professor of Commercial Law and Civil Procedural Law, and Dean of the Faculty of Law during the Second World War. He acquired fame as a consequence of his speech on 26 November 1940 in which he denounced the measures taken by the Nazis to remove Jewish professors from the University. He was twice imprisoned by the Germans during the course of the war. The Leids Universiteits Fonds (LUF) organizes Cleveringa Lectures annually since 1946 in cooperation with regional committees to commemorate his famous protest speech. Leiden scientists worldwide hold interesting lectures on current scientific topics around November 26th.


Speaker

Larissa van den Herik is Professor of Public International Law at the Grotius Centre for International Legal Studies at Leiden University.
