520 | |a In her study of the Eichmann trial, Hannah Arendt critiqued the view that criminal trials could or should have a didactic purpose. For Arendt, “the purpose of a trial is to render justice, and nothing else.” Assigning it a heuristic function would “only detract from the law's main business”1—which is to render justice to the accused. Devin Pendas's new book on the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trial evokes in modified form Arendt's skepticism about the power of the criminal trial to serve justice and represent traumatic history faithfully. Pendas holds that German domestic law in the Auschwitz Trial was inadequate, by virtue of its very structure, to convey the social conditions of genocide. | ||
