Exploring the intersection of law and state violence, this book delves into how legal frameworks facilitate practices such as torture, secret imprisonment, and remote killings. It critically analyzes the mechanisms through which law is manipulated to justify and perpetuate acts of violence by the state, shedding light on the implications for justice and human rights. Through its examination, the work challenges readers to reconsider the relationship between legal authority and the exercise of power in contemporary society.
