In this new collection of essays the editors assess the legacy of the Nuremberg Trial asking whether the Trial really did have a civilising influence or if it constituted little more than institutionalised vengeance. Three essays focus particularly on the historical context and involve rich analysis of, for example, the atmospherics of the Trial itself and the attitudes of German society at the time to the conduct of the Trial. The majority of the essays deal with the contemporary legacies of the Nuremberg Trial and attempt to assess the ongoing relevance of the Judgment itself and of the principles encapsulated in it. Some essays consider the importance of the principle of individual criminal responsibility under international law and argue that the international community has to some extent failed to fulfil the promise of Nuremberg in the decades since the Trial. Other essays focus on contemporary application of aspects of the substantive law of Nuremberg - particularly the international crime of aggression, the law of military occupation and the use of the crime of conspiracy as an alternative basis of criminal responsibility. The collection also includes essays analysing the nature and operation of a number of international criminal tribunals since Nuremberg including the permanent International Criminal Court. The final grouping of essays focus on the impact of the Nuremberg Trial on Australia examining, in particular, Australia’s post-World War Two war crimes trials of Japanese defendants, Australia’s extensive national case law on Article 1(F) of the Refugee Convention and Australia’s national implementing legislation for the Rome Statute.

Le discrimen veri ac falsi appartient depuis les Temps modernes à l’art de l’historien. Récemment le couple vrai/faux est entré uni dans le langage de l’historien qui a cherché ce que le faux lui apprenait de vrai sur la société qui l’avait vu naître, prospérer et souvent demeurer indétecté. Il est peu fréquent cependant que l’on se penche sur les circonstances qui ont déterminé un faux à être repéré et dénoncé, puis que l’on s’attarde sur la manière dont ce dernier était saisi, discuté, éventuellement puni par la justice. Les contributions rassemblées ici prennent le faux comme point de départ et non comme point d’arrivée, autrement dit s’intéressent moins à sa fabrication, à ses modèles ou aux motivations de son faussaire qu’à l’aval de son histoire, depuis la découverte ou la dénonciation jusqu’à son jugement ou sa condamnation, en passant par les moyens et les hommes qui permettent d’établir son caractère falsifié. Ce livre constitue un élément d’une plus vaste enquête engagée autour de l’écrit comme moteur, et non plus seulement symptôme ou instrument, de la construction de l’État et de ses rapports avec la société.

In 1963, West Germany was gripped by a dramatic trial of former guards who had worked at the Nazi death camp Auschwitz. It was the largest and most public trial to take place in the country and attracted international attention. Using the pretrial files and extensive trial audiotapes, Rebecca Wittmann offers a fascinating reinterpretation of Germany's first major attempt to confront its past.
