About this product

Product Information

De l'Antiquite aux tortures americaines en Irak, en passant par l'Inquisition, les supplices chinois, la guerre d'Algerie, les dictateurs sud americains, sovietiques, chinois..., la torture est une constante de l'humanite. Mais pourquoi? Pourquoi cette constance? Pourquoi meme les democraties ? Pourquoi des hommes ordinaires? La torture persiste malgre son interdiction mondiale, malgre les conventions internationales, malgre les inspections de l'ONU. Ne serait-elle pas necessaire, en definitive? Rien qu'un peu, evidemment? A titre exceptionnel? Juste pour les crimes les plus graves? Juste pour le terrorisme? Juste pour... Mais l'histoire de la torture n'est jamais qu'une longue liste d'exceptions, concedees, la main sur le coeur, pour le plus grand bien de l'humanite. Alors pourquoi? Des facteurs politiques? Ideologiques? Individuels? En definitive, la torture ne participe-t-elle pas a cette vaste et permanente entreprise de demolition de l'homme dont parle Primo Levi? Une machine de guerre, minutieuse et perverse, tournee par l'homme contre son essence-meme. Inutile d'argumenter. Le combat ne peut etre qu'absolu, la condamnation categorique. Et pour ce combat, sans concession, il faut connaitre son adversaire, notre part sombre d'humanite.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

I was pleasantly surprised by how soon I received this textbook given that it shipped from outside the U.S. It was packaged well with no damage. The price was right. And I greatly appreciated the communication informing me where the book was shipping from and including a tracking number. Overall, a positive experience, - online shopping the way it should be. I've bought books from this seller several times now without any complaints and will surely buy from them again. Thanks a lot!

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A. Fantastic price. Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected. Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.
