Description

The roots of today’s international justice and international humanitarian law systems are the crimes and processes created by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson for the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg in 1945. Kristan McMahon will provide the historic context from Nuremberg and how that has evolved into the ad hoc tribunals and the International Criminal Court of today.  She’ll also explore the possible paths to accountability for the Russian Federation invasion of Ukraine.
