John Routh PM, Cindy Beyer, and the online Distributed Proofreaders Canada team at http://www.pgdpcanada.net "Trial of the Major War Criminals Before the International Military Tribunal" is an official account documenting the Nuremberg Trials, published in the late 1940s. This historical work records the proceedings against key figures of the Nazi regime, focusing on the complex legal and moral arguments surrounding their actions during World War II, particularly concerning issues of obedience and responsibility within the military hierarchy. The work serves as a crucial resource for understanding the judicial processes that sought justice for war crimes. The opening of the text introduces the formal context of the trials held from November 1945 to October 1946, outlining the procedural framework and emphasizing the absence of certain defendants. Dr. Otto Nelte, the counsel for one of the defendants, Wilhelm Keitel, begins addressing the Tribunal's questions surrounding the principle of military obedience, highlighting the ideological challenges faced by military leaders under Hitler's command. It establishes the mental and ethical dilemmas posed by orders that contradicted international law, setting the stage for a thorough examination of war crimes, moral guilt, and the defense arguments of those involved. This introductory material lays a foundational understanding of the trials' gravity and significance in post-war jurisprudence.
