Inhalt	75 years ago the war crimes trials took place in Nuremberg – the Nuremberg Trials. The Nuremberg war crimes trials were and still are important not only for international criminal law, but also for international human rights law and international humanitarian law. In the spring term 2021 the workshop aims to trace the significance of the Nuremberg Trials for human rights and international humanitarian law. The workshop will be held in two parts. During the first part of the semester students will work in groups (3 to 4 students) and prepare presentations and papers on self-chosen topics relating to this semester’s theme. After a first organisational meeting at the beginning of the semester there will be no weekly class meetings but rather individual guidance sessions with Prof. Martina Caroni and her team for the groups. During the second part of the semester there will be weekly meetings for the group presentations and discussion of the issues presented.
