The official reports of this year's meeting, which amazingly managed to coincide both with the 60 year Holocaust Memorial Day and the Iraqi elections, are at www.weforum.org/site/homepublic.nsf/Content/Annual+Meeting+2005. Among many other things left over from the meetings this week there's a brilliant summary (here), courtesy of Price Waterhouse Coopers, of the different lessons people draw from Second World War, of great relevance to debate on Iraq and the European Union. The session concerned was led by Shimon T. Samuels of the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
