Sir William Flood Webb KBE (1887-1972) is little known but was Australia's most prominent jurist on war crimes in the mid-twentieth century. This project is a legal-historical study that investigates and examines Webb's extraordinary impact on the development and transformation of international criminal law through his roles as a war crimes investigator, consultant and jurist and, in particular, as President of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East. The project will shed light on historical views of war crimes, the legal actions taken and institutions created in response and the judicial and procedural precedents that were established, not only within Australia but internationally.

威廉·弗洛德·韦伯爵士(1887-1972)鲜为人知，但他是20世纪中叶澳大利亚最著名的战争罪法学家。本项目是一项法律历史研究，旨在调查和研究韦布作为战争罪调查员、顾问和法学家，特别是作为远东国际军事法庭庭长，对国际刑法的发展和变革产生的非凡影响。该项目将阐明战争罪行的历史观点、为回应而采取的法律行动和建立的机构，以及不仅在澳大利亚国内而且在国际上确立的司法和程序先例。
