What has been noticeably absent, however, is a thorough historical contextualization of US torture following September 11, 2001. The Shadow of Torture analyzes the debates on torture during the Vietnam War and the Philippine-American War and shows that the current controversy did not arise out of a political vacuum but reflects and draws upon pre-existing discursive contexts and practices.Country/Region of Manufacture: CHBook Series: TranscriptionGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Law & Politics, HistoryRelease Year: 2015 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
