Is legalizing torture ever justified to combat terrorism? This vital book rigorously explores the limits of law, human rights, and academic freedom in addressing this urgent debate. Philip N. S. Rumney dissects consequentialist arguments, interdisciplinary perspectives, and real-world case studies from Northern Ireland to CIA interrogations, including the ‘ticking bomb’ hypothetical. Uncover the societal impacts and potential ‘slippery slope’ dangers of regulating torture. A must-read for students and academics in criminology, law, philosophy, and sociology, and for discerning readers grappling with national security ethics.
