Abstract
This pivot considers the process and the impact of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, otherwise known as the Tokyo Trial, which was convened in 1946 to try political and military leaders of Japan accused of involvement in war crimes. It gives a vivid personal account of the establishment and early days of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East. Written from the perspective of a Chinese judge who was both jurist and witness, this unique text offers invaluable first-hand information and penetrating insight on the historical event of the Tokyo Trial.
