Produktbeschreibung
In this important and worthy book, Ellis Washington succinctly and convincingly proposes that the Framers of the United Nations and its international legal arm, the Nuremberg Tribunal, utilized a defective legal philosophy and jurisprudence sixty years ago at the advent of the Nuremberg Trials called Positive law-the separation of law and morals. Adherence to this ineffective legal philosophy has virtually destroyed subsequent international war crimes cases that in modern times have devolved into symbolic show and farcical trials at The Hague. Washington asserts a case that involves a more substantive and historically relevant legal philosophy and jurisprudence that the Framers of the U.N. Nuremberg Tribunal ought to have relied on in judging the twenty-two Nazi defendants-Natural law-the unity of law and morality.
