Descrizione del libro

In this volume, scholars from various disciplines examine the complex factors contributing to terrorist acts and state-sponsored torture, and the potential linkage between these two behaviours. They also consider the strategies that might reduce the threat of terrorist acts and the perceived necessity to engage in morally reprehensible - and often illegal - torture practices.
