Amos N. Guiora is a professor (lecturer) at the S.J. Quinney College of Law where he directs the Bystander Initiative. His scholarship focuses on bystanders and enablers, resulting in a number of books including The Crime of Complicity: The Bystander in the Holocaust, Armies of Enablers: Survivor Stories of Complicity and Betrayal in Sexual Assaults, The Complicity of Silence: Confronting Ecosystems of Child Sexual Abuse in Schools, and the forthcoming Enablers: Normalizing the Unimaginable, which is the third book in the American Bar Association series: Guiora on Enablers and Bystanders.

In addition, Guiora has authored numerous law review articles on this issue, is widely interviewed by local, national and international media, and has testified both in the U.S. and abroad, calling for the criminalization of bystanders and enablers. Drawing on his late parents’ experiences, Guiora speaks to junior high students on the bystander in the Holocaust and the importance of acting on behalf of vulnerable classmates.

Guiora is also a member of the Board of Advisors for S.E.S.A.M.E.; a member of the Advisory Committee of the Lauren McCluskey Foundation; Member Consultant Group, Holocaust Claims Commission; was the inaugural chair of the University of Utah Independent Review Committee; and chaired the Gymnastics Canada Task Force on Assault.
