Judgement at Nuremberg: Holding Nazi Leaders Accountable

About the Event

Explore the groundbreaking Nuremberg Trials, a pivotal moment in history that set the stage for modern international law and justice. Held between 1945 and 1949 in Nuremberg, Germany, these military tribunals were conducted by the Allied forces to prosecute the top leaders of Nazi Germany for their roles in the atrocities of World War II. The most significant of these was the International Military Tribunal (IMT), where 24 high-ranking Nazi officials were charged with crimes against peace, war crimes, and crimes against humanity.

Through this course, taught by Katlyn Rozovics, a fourth-year Ph.D. candidate in the Department of History at the University of Arkansas, you’ll gain a deep understanding of how the Nuremberg Trials sought to hold individuals accountable for the Holocaust. You’ll explore the extensive evidence presented during the trials, including documents and eyewitness testimonies, and learn about the lasting impact these trials had on shaping modern concepts of justice, human rights, and international law.
