Can we understand torture my focusing on the torture chamber or even on the states in which it is practiced, or do we have to consider the wider political context in which it is embedded? This is the central question of this book which explores concepts of state crime for understanding and responding to the indirect use of torture by external nation states. Drawing on the cooperation between France and Argentina in the Dirty War, this book explores the transnational institutionalisation of torture and offers a detailed examination of the exportation of torture techniques and training expertise as complicity in torture.
