The Nuremberg Trials - The Complete Proceedings Vol 7: The Nazi Regime of Terror (The Third Reich from Original Sources)

This is the seventh volume in the complete proceedings of the Nuremberg trial of the German major war criminals before the International Military Tribunal sitting at Nuremberg, Germany.
Taken from the original court transcript this volume covers the proceedings from 14th February to 25th February 1946 and represents an essential primary source for scholars and general readers alike. The transcripts are complete and contain the whole of the proceedings as taken from the original court documents.
This volume further details the Nazi regime of terror. Covering the crimes and brutalities against prisoners of war and civilians in the Eastern Countries, the uniformity of criminal methods, techniques of depopulation and crimes against humanity employed by the German army in 1942.
Highlighting the judicial terror, that is, lawlessness under the guise of law inflicted by the Germans on Prisoners of War and civilians; this section of the trial encompasses the medical experiments on prisoners, sadistic tortures during interrogation, atrocities against children, gas vans, the systematic infection of concentration camp inmates, the concealment of crimes, the trade in human remains and the destruction of villages and the inhabitants as a result of the Keitel directive in December 1942 for anti-partisan warfare and the impunity of German soldiers for any acts against Soviet civilians.
The plunder of Czecholslovakian public and private property, dispossession of Czech farmers and the expropriation of banks and industries are covered along with excerpts from Hans Franks diaries. The programme for plunder and other directives prior to the invasion of the Stalingrad are investigated along with the direct responsibility of individual defendants; particularly Goering and Keitel. The cases for the defence and prosecution on defendants Hess and Ribbentrop are also heard.
The tribunal hears the case against Nazi methods of suppressing national culture and the destruction of cities and towns without military necessity and the process of the extermination of the Slav peoples and concludes with the oral evidence of two Soviet citizens on the discrimination and severe treatment against Soviet prisoners of war and citizens for the alleged harbouring of partisans.
