| adam_text | After Nuremberg is about the fleeting nature of American punishment lor German war crimi nals convicted at the twelve Nuremberg trials of 1446-1949. Because of repeated American grants of clemency and parole, ninety-seven of the 142 Germans convicted at rhe .Nurem berg trials, many of them major offenders, regained their freedom years, sometimes decades, ahead of schedule. High-ranking Nazi plunderers, kidnappers, purveyors of slave labor, and mass murderers all walked free by 1958. High Gommissioner for Occu pied Germany John J.

Based on extensive archival research (includ ing newly declassified material), this book explains how American policy makers best intentions resulted in a series of decisions from 1949 to 1958 that produced a self-perpet uating burea ucracy of clemency and parole that rehabilitated unrepentant German abettors and perpetrators of theft, slavery, and murder while lending salience to the must reactionary elements in West German political discourse.
