Why Not Torture Terrorists?

Moral, Practical, and Legal Aspects of the 'Ticking Bomb' Justification for Torture

af Yuval (Legal Adviser Ginbar

Bog, Paperback, Engelsk, 2010

This book addresses a dilemma at the heart of counter-terrorism: Is it ever justifiable to torture terrorists when innocent lives are at stake? The book analyses the moral arguments and presents a passionate defence of prohibition. It also examines current State practice and the models of legalising torture suggested in Israel and the US.
