Ben Ferencz, prosecutor at the Nuremberg Nazi Trials

Have the Nuremberg trials made genocide and crimes against humanity less likely today?

Seventy-five years after the Nuremberg Military Tribunals convicted some of the most senior Nazis of war crimes and crimes against humanity, the last surviving prosecutor from the trials, Ben Ferencz talks to Zeinab Badawi. Does he believe the Nuremberg trials have made genocide and crimes against humanity less likely to be committed in the world today? This programme was first broadcast in 2017.
