Description

Explore a detailed examination of US intelligence and interrogation policies in the aftermath of September 11, 2001. In Torture As Public Policy: Restoring U.S. Credibility on the World Stage, author James P. Pfiffner investigates how the Bush Administration shifted long-standing national protocols regarding the treatment of enemy prisoners. This book provides an authoritative look at the policy directives and operational decisions that led to the use of harsh interrogation techniques. Pfiffner analyzes the leadership actions that reversed centuries of established US policy and examines the specific concerns raised by career military lawyers regarding these new methods. Ideal for readers interested in 21st-century American history, political science, and international relations, this Routledge publication offers a deep dive into the decisions that shaped modern US credibility on the world stage. It serves as a significant resource for understanding the tension between intelligence gathering and international policy standards.
