Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book investigates the political context and intentions behind the trialling of Japanese war criminals in the wake of World War Two. After the Second World War in Asia, the victorious Allies placed around 5,700 Japanese on trial for war crimes. Ostensibly crafted to bring perpetrators to justice, the trials intersected in complex ways with the great issues of the day. They were meant to finish off the business of World War Two and to consolidate United States hegemony over Japan in the Pacific, but they lost impetus as Japan morphed into an ally of the West in the Cold War. Embattled colonial powers used the trials to bolster their authority against nationalist revolutionaries, but they found the principles of international humanitarian law were sharply at odds with the inequalities embodied in colonialism. Within nationalist movements, local enmities often overshadowed the reckoning with Japan. And hovering over the trials was the critical question: just what was justice forthe Japanese in a world where all sides had committed atrocities? This book investigates the political context and intentions behind the trialling of Japanese war criminals in the wake of World War Two. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Aggiungi al carrelloHardback. Condizione: New. In 1947 German Field Marshal Albert Kesselring was tried and convicted of war crimes committed during World War II. He was held responsible for his troops having executed nearly 9,000 Italian citizens - women, children, elderly men - in retaliation for partisan attacks. His conviction, however, created a real dilemma for the United States and western Europe. While some sought the harshest punishments available for anyone who had participated in the war crimes of the Nazi regime, others believed that the repatriation of alleged war criminals would help secure the allegiance of a rearmed West Germany in the dangerous new Cold War against the Soviet Union. Kerstin von Lingen's close analysis of the Kesselring case reveals for the first time how a network of veterans, lawyers, and German sympathizers in Britain and America achieved the commutation of Kesselring's death sentence and his eventual release - reinforcing German popular conceptions that he had been innocent all along and that the Wehrmacht had fought a 'clean war' in Italy. But von Lingen shows that Kesselring bore much greater guilt for civilian deaths than had been proven in court - and that the war on the southern front had been far from clean. Von Lingen weaves together strands of the story as diverse as Winston Churchill's ability to mobilize support among British elites, Basil Liddell Hart's need to be recognized as an important military thinker, and the Cold War fears of the 'Senators' Circle' in the United States. Through this rich narrative, she shows how international politics shaped the trial's proceedings and outcome - as well as the memory and meaning of the war for German citizens - and sheds new light on the complex interplay between the combatants' efforts to 'master the past' and the threatening state of international relations in the early Cold War. In analyzing the efforts to clear Kesselring's name, von Lingen shows that the case was about much more than the fate of one convicted individual; it also underscored the pressure to wrap up the war crimes issue - and German guilt - in order to get on with the business of bringing a rearmed Germany into the Western alliance. ""Kesselring's Last Battle"" sheds new light on the 'politics of memory' by unraveling a twisted thread in postwar history as it shows how historical truth is sometimes sacrificed on the altar of expediency.

near fine dust-jacket, near fine green cloth, appears unused, light foxing on top foredge. LINGEN, KERSTIN VON. Kesselring's last battle: war crimes trials and Cold War politics, 1945-1960. Translated by Alexandra Klemm. Lawrence, Kan.: University Press of Kansas, 2009, ix, 451pp., . Series: Modern war studies In 1947 German Field Marshal Albert Kesselring was tried and convicted of war crimes committed during World War II. He was held responsible for his troops having executed nearly 9,000 Italian citizens-- women, children, elderly men-- in retaliation for partisan attacks. His conviction, however, created a real dilemma for the United States and western Europe. While some sought the harshest punishments available for anyone who had participated in the war crimes of the Nazi regime, others believed that the repatriation of alleged war criminals would help secure the allegiance of a rearmed West Germany in the dangerous new Cold War against the Soviet Union. This close analysis of the Kesselring case reveals for the first time how a network of veterans, lawyers, and German sympathizers in Britain and America achieved the commutation of Kesselring's death sentence and his eventual release--^, reinforcing German popular conceptions that he had been innocent all along and that the Wehrmacht had fought a "clean war" in Italy. But the author shows that Kesselring bore much greater guilt for civilian deaths than had been proven in court-- and that the war on the Southern Front had been far from clean. In this narrative, she shows how international politics shaped the trial's proceedings and outcome-- as well as the memory and meaning of the war for German citizens-- and sheds new light on the complex interplay between the combatants' efforts to "master the past" and the threatening state of international relations in the early Cold War. In analyzing the efforts to clear Kesselring's name, von Lingen shows that the case was about much more than the fate of one convicted individual; it also underscored the pressure to wrap up the war crimes issue-- and German guilt--^, in order to get on with the business of bringing a rearmed Germany into the Western alliance. It sheds new light on the "politics of memory" by unraveling a twisted thread in postwar history as it shows how historical truth is sometimes sacrificed on the altar of expediency. - CONTENTS: On the Italian stage : Albert Kesselring -- Allied politics of memory : the war crimes trials -- In search of a new British politics of memory -- The politicization of the war crimes issue -- Kesselring's release -- Conclusion : Kesselring's trial and release in the context of the rearmament debate.
