内容説明

This book deals with a specialized area of international law relating to prisoners, especially as regards the worst abuses to which they may be subject, such as torture, enforced disappearance and summary and arbitrary executions, as well as capital and corporal punishment. It is mainly a study in international human rights law, but also draws extensively on international humanitarian law and international criminal law. The first edition charted this subject and this edition reflects the extensive legal and institutional developments that have taken place in the last twelve years. It has been relied on as the standard reference book by scholars, practitioners, government officials and human rights organization workers, as well as professionals in inter-governmental organizations.
