Torture as Tort: Comparative Perspectives on the Development of Transnational Tort Litigation

Torture as Tort: Comparative Perspectives on the Development of Transnational Tort Litigation

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
There has been, to date, little treatment, let alone a comprehensive assessment, of the merits and demerits of US-style transnational human rights litigation by non-American legal scholars and practitioners. The book seeks not so much to fill this gap as to start the process of doing so, with a view to stimulating debate amongst scholars and policy-makers. The book's doctrinal coverage and analytical inquiries will also be extremely relevant to the world of transnational legal practice beyond the specific question of human rights litigation.
