All International Criminal and War Crimes Trials

Trials that prosecuted individuals for crimes under international law: the Nuremberg trials, the Tokyo trials and the first judgment of the International Criminal Court in Lubanga. A case belongs here when its cited article describes it as a trial for war crimes or crimes against humanity before an international tribunal. It excludes disputes between states. Proceedings before the Nuremberg and Tokyo tribunals and before the permanent International Criminal Court are all admitted, whatever their century.
