they paved the way for the future international criminal court in the hague. joining me now is philip sands is a professor of laws and the director of the center on international courts and tribunals that university college london. mr. science, thanks for joining me. these trials were groundbreaking on so many levels and given the unique circumstances. what exactly was unique about the trial? well, it was the 1st time in human history that any international criminal trial had taken place. so it truly was a 1st and they literally had to invent new crimes to apply to these defendants. you mention crimes against humanity, but of course it was on this day 75 years ago that the word genocide was 1st used because it was created as a war crime. so it was a wholly original process untried, untested completely new waters. and i want to talk to you further, but before we continue, let's listen to 2 men that spoke to one, and that's survivor. and the other, the son of a nazi deputy, they told us about the impact that these tribunals had on their lives. in 1904 peter guar

international criminal law. as we have it today, particularly the international criminal court in the hague. t was the 1st time in history that the principle, the key principle of international criminal law was implemented and applied. and that is that there is something like individual criminal responsibility directly under international law. and this principle, similar efforts after the 1st world war had failed, but this principle was for the 1st time applied and establish the nerve that is actually the fundament of modern international criminal law. where the number of trials were also controversial. some have called them an example of victor's justice. would you say the trials were seriously flawed? well, i would of course agree that the fact that germany lost the wall created the possibility for this trial and for other trials, followup trials, which we had before. i like courts following the trial before the international military tribunal. i mean, of course the possibility was created by that. did that damage the political legitimacy of this trial? i don't think so. there were other le

but for the 1st time in history, the rulers of a country had to answer to an international criminal court. the allies wanted to show that the individuals would be held responsible for the crimes of the nazis, not the german people as a home. the charges against the main war, criminals included conspiracy against world pace planning, unleashing and conducting a war of aggression, crimes and violations of martial law. crimes against humanity. because you're going to liken it to a not guilty like home and getting none of the accused. were willing to take responsibility. many germans only learnt about the unbelievable extent of the crimes during the trial. on october 1st, 946, the sentences were handed down 3 acquittals, 3 life sentences for prison sentences, 12 death sentences were carried out shortly afterwards. the nuremberg trials became a historical milestone. they paved the way for the future international criminal court in the hague. earlier i spoke to philip sands is director of the center of international courts and tribunals at university college london. and i asked him about the im

would not have been in court in the hague, but for the nuremberg trials, it's a simple as that it changed. indeed it did for having said that we of course,, have the international criminal criminal court in the hague, the i.c.c., but with many world powers such as the u.s. to china, russia not, not recognizing it. how effective can it day? well, it's, you know, it's early days, international justice and international criminal law. i think it is a very long day in 1905. the world changed for the 1st time states loans. they could not treat their citizens and they wished they could kill them. they couldn't torture them. anymore, they couldn't disappear that the middle east, not in accordance with international law. and you can't expect a change of that kind. it was revolutionary to have an instant effect. and so i think it's a couple of steps forward, a step sideways a step. it's a long game, but over the long run, the arc of history is towards justice. and i think over time,, these countries that don't participate, the u.s., russia, china will begin to get involved. fascinating enforcing. that's all we have time for professor philip sands. thanks very much. for speaking t
