This review is from: Genocide on Trial: War Crimes Trials and the Formation of History and Memory (Hardcover)
Donald Bloxham's Genocide on Trial is among the most comprehensive and authoritative studies of post World War II war crimes trials ever written. Unlike most books on the subject, Bloxham does not limit his study to Nuremberg's International Military Tribunal. He reviews the vast majority of Allied war crimes trials and also the premature releases of convicted war criminals during the 1950s. Using new archival sources, Bloxham documents the British government's premature releases of prominent war criminals (like Kesselring and von Manstein) during the Cold War. The author convincingly proves his contention "that war crimes trials did little to clarify conceptualizations of Nazi criminality in the public sphere anywhere." Genocide on Trial should be mandatory reading for anyone interested in the history of war crimes trials.
