(Note: the introduction and questions from the audience at the end may not be entirely audible, but the speaker was wearing a microphone and can be heard clearly.)

Haas, Ph.D., is Abba Hillel Silver Professor of Jewish Studies; Chair, Department of Religious Studies; and Director, Judaic Studies, Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. His recent books include Human Rights and the World’s Major Religions: The Jewish Tradition and Responsa: Literary History of a Rabbinic Genre.

All the best,
