One of the ways this occurred was through the Nuremberg trials, which aimed to hold high-ranking Nazi officials accountable for their roles in the genocide. The trials established the principle that individuals could be held responsible for committing atrocities, even if they were acting on behalf of a government. This idea helped shape international law and led to the development of the Genocide Convention and the establishment of the International Criminal Court, which have been instrumental in prosecuting individuals for crimes against humanity. The Holocaust and the Nuremberg trials were a turning point in the history of international law, setting a precedent for holding individuals accountable for the most heinous of crimes.
