Summary
Gibt es Umstände, in denen Folter moralisch gerechtfertigt oder gar erforderlich ist? In diesem Band diskutieren führende europäische Rechts- und Politikwissenschaftler die Moralität von Folter und analysieren diese grauenvolle Praxis sowie die Versuche, sie unter Kontrolle zu bringen, aus rechtlicher, soziologischer und historischer Sicht.
