Carnegie Scholar on Torture and Democracy Rejali’s new book Torture and Democracy (Princeton University Press) is a comprehensive and unnerving examination of modern torture. He takes the reader from the late nineteenth century to the aftermath of Abu Ghraib, from slavery and the electric chair to electro-torture in American inner cities, and from French and British colonial prison cells and the Spanish-American War to the fields of Vietnam, the wars of the Middle East, and the new democracies of Latin America and Europe.
