Torture and the Twilight of Empire: From Algiers to Baghdad Hardcover - 2007
by Marnia Lazreg
From the publisher
From the rear cover
"This book interprets torture not as an incidental if frequent characteristic of neocolonial conflict, but as one of its major elements. Using the Algerian war as a case study, Lazreg argues that to the French forces the psychological and political significance of their policy of torture was far greater than its operational significance. Her work is certainly pertinent to the present."--Peter Paret, Institute for Advanced Study
