Lesson One introduces students to the concepts of war crimes and laws of war, and lets them observe how the laws apply in specific war scenarios. Lesson Two focuses on the application of the laws of war, offering three post-World War II case studies as examples. Lesson Three introduces students to contemporary international war crimes tribunals. Students view two lectures by Stanford Professor Stephen J. Stedman
