Tortura e migrazioni. Torture and migration

As an extreme form of social relationship of submission, torture is still an ongoing and widespread practice everywhere; this is also due to several processes typical of the neo-liberal era, starting from the policies aimed at the security armoring of society. This volume investigates torture against immigrants, focusing on fundamental historical and theoretical issues, the situation in different countries of the world, aspects related to health, and highlighting the close link with the worsening conditions of migration and the war on migrants.
