Like its Nuremberg counterpart, the Tokyo Trial was foundational in
the field of international law. However, until now, the persistent
notion of 'victor's justice' in the existing historical literature
has made it difficult to treat it as such. David Cohen and Yuma
Totani seek to redress this by cutting through persistent
orthodoxies and ideologies that have plagued the trial. Instead
they present it simply as a judicial process, and in so doing
reveal its enduring importance for international jurisprudence. A
wide range of primary sources are considered, including court
transcripts, court exhibits, the majority judgment, and five
separate concurring and dissenting opinions. The authors also
provide comparative analysis of the Allied trials at Nuremberg,
resulting in a comprehensive and empirically grounded study of the
trial. The Tokyo Tribunal was a watershed moment in the history of
the Asia-Pacific region. This groundbreaking study reveals it is of
continuing relevance today.
