The issue of\u003cbr\u003epunishing war criminals was widely discussed by the leaders of\u003cbr\u003ethe Allied nations, however, well before the end of the war. As\u003cbr\u003eArieh Kochavi demonstrates, the policies finally adopted, \u003cbr\u003eincluding the institution of the Nuremberg trials, represented\u003cbr\u003ethe culmination of a complicated process rooted in the domestic\u003cbr\u003eand international politics of the war years.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eDrawing on extensive research, Kochavi painstakingly\u003cbr\u003ereconstructs the deliberations that went on in Washington and\u003cbr\u003eLondon at a time when the Germans were perpetrating their worst\u003cbr\u003ecrimes. He also examines the roles of the Polish and Czech\u003cbr\u003egovernments-in-exile, the Soviets, and the United Nations War\u003cbr\u003eCrimes Commission in the formulation of a joint policy on war\u003cbr\u003ecrimes, as well as the neutral governments' stand on the question\u003cbr\u003eof asylum for war criminals. This compelling account thereby\u003cbr\u003esheds new light on one of the most important and least understood\u003cbr\u003easpects of World War II. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arieh J.
