| 總結: | The German Historical Institute's recent publication Nazi Crimes and the Law covers a range of legal and political issues from early postwar problems of prosecution of German war criminals to present-day Holocaust denial. This anthology of eleven articles drawn from a 2003 conference in Amsterdam reveals the complexity of efforts to confront the totality of Nazi crimes. Justice appears illusive and its absence is clear; no punishment can fit the crime. Consistently throughout the chapters, the reader encounters defendants' efforts to appeal to the basic legal principles that were denied their victims. |
