Kirsten Sellars analyses the Allies' prosecution of the German and Japanese leaders for 'crimes against peace' - planning and waging aggressive war - at the Nuremberg and Tokyo tribunals in the mid-1940s. This legal experiment is still relevant, especially to lawyers, policy-makers and scholars engaged in international law and international relations today.
