Moving past theoretical critiques of human rights, this book considers how we might translate situational analyses of torture into effective strategies for preventing it.

'… Celermajer's work undoubtedly merits wide inclusion on the reading lists of postgraduate programmes in applied human rights. Celermajer ensures that the demands and difficulties of the world of human rights practice are always kept in view throughout the book.' Brian Phillips, Journal of Human Rights Practice
