Held at UCL on 13 May 2025
Listen to our conversation with international lawyer, bestselling author, and Professor of Law at UCL, Philippe Sands KC, on his most recent book, 38 Londres Street (Hachette Collections, 2025).
It is the latest in a series of books that blend personal memoir, historical detective work and gripping courtroom drama to probe the legacies of Nazism – and document legal efforts to bring perpetrators to account. Following East West Street (2016) and The Ratline (2020), 38 Londres Street takes us on a journey exploring the links between a Nazi SS officer, Walther Rauff, and Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet – and with it, the entanglement of dictatorship in Chile, Nazism, European colonial history, and our modern times.
2024-25 UCL Europe Lecture
Philippe Sands KC, Professor of Public Understanding of Law, UCL Laws
In Conversation with
Uta Staiger, Associate Professor of European Studies and Director of the UCL European Institute
Kimberley Trapp, Professor of Public International Law, UCL Laws
