Description: Pourquoi La Torture? by Serge Portelli Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description De lAntiquite aux tortures americaines en Irak, en passant par lInquisition, les supplices chinois, la guerre dAlgerie, les dictateurs sud americains, sovietiques, chinois..., la torture est une constante de lhumanite. 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 lONU. Ne serait-elle pas necessaire, en definitive? Rien quun peu, evidemment? A titre exceptionnel? Juste pour les crimes les plus graves? Juste pour le terrorisme? Juste pour... Mais lhistoire de la torture nest jamais quune longue liste dexceptions, concedees, la main sur le coeur, pour le plus grand bien de lhumanite. 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 lhomme dont parle Primo Levi? Une machine de guerre, minutieuse et perverse, tournee par lhomme contre son essence-meme. Inutile dargumenter. Le combat ne peut etre quabsolu, la condamnation categorique. Et pour ce combat, sans concession, il faut connaitre son adversaire, notre part sombre dhumanite. Details ISBN 2711623254 ISBN-13 9782711623259 Title Pourquoi La Torture?
