And it is possible that the memory of dreams does not correspond exactly to the dreams themselves. If we think of the dream as a work of fiction—and I think it is—it may be that we continue to spin tales when we wake and later when we recount them.

  • Re-Examining Nuremberg As a New Deal Institution: Politics, Culture and the Limits of Law in Generating Human Rights Norms
    Re-examining Nuremberg as a New Deal Institution: Politics, Culture and the Limits of Law in Generating Human Rights Norms By Elizabeth Borgwardt* Major Airey Neave, famous at age twenty-nine for his multiple escapes from Nazi prisons, noticed the unusually brilliant shine on Colonel Burton Andrus' helmet, as the two officers stood waiting outside the prison wing of the Palace of Justice at Nuremberg on the afternoon of October 19, 1945. Neave was a German-speaking London barrister whose wartime heroics with the clandestine British intelligence service, MI-9, had involved disguising himself variously as a Dutch electrical worker, a German corporal, and a German artillery lieutenant.1 The afternoon before, Francis Biddle, former U.S. Attorney General and the American judge at Nuremberg, had cavalierly informed Neave that the young major was to serve copies of the Nuremberg Charter, along with a detailed criminal indictment, on the Nazi leaders incarcerated in the Palace of 2 Justice. * Assistant Professor of History, University of Utah. J.D. (Harvard); Ph.D. (Stanford); M.Phil, International Relations (Cambridge). 1. Major Neave had escaped from the supposedly escape-proof Nazi prison in Colditz Castle, Saxony, a feat which so impressed the senior members of London's Middle Temple that they waived his final Bar examinations. He learned German as an exchange student in Berlin in 1933, where he unwittingly participated in a Nazi youth march. His memoir, although not published until the late 1970s, was based on his contemporaneous notes and on a memo he filed with the Nuremberg Tribunal in 1945. See Airey Neave, Memorandum for the General Secretary of the International Military Tribunal (Oct.

German government officials and local leaders, all Nazi Party members, left the people remaining in their cities and villages to deal with their new occupiers. The Allies needed to restore services, such as power, and make sure the people could be fed and sheltered. They also needed to round up German prisoners of war and suspected war criminals. Securing prisoners of war did not represent much of a problem, other than the sheer numbers of prisoners. Often, however, the war criminals proved difficult to locate.
