520 _a'In 1946, the judges at the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg declared'crimes against peace' - the planning, initiation or waging of aggressive wars - to be'the supreme international crime'. At the time, the prosecuting powers heralded the charge as being a legal milestone, but it later proved to be an anomaly arising from the unique circumstances of the post-war period. This study traces the idea of criminalising aggression, from its origins after the First World War, through its high-water mark at the post-war tribunals at Nuremberg and Tokyo, to its abandonment during the Cold War. Today, a similar charge - the'crime of aggression' - is being mooted at the International Criminal Court, so the ideas and debates that shaped the original charge of'crimes against peace' assume new significance and offer valuable insights to lawyers, policy-makers and scholars engaged in international law and international relations'--
