Читать книгу Cruelty or Humanity - Rees Stuart - Страница 3

“Stuart Rees’s deeply humane and moral book documents and analyses historical, state-sanctioned, global violence and cruelty, while quoting international poems offering compassionate voices of humanity. A compelling, disturbing, inspiring book.”

—Robert S. White, author of Pacifism in English Literature

“In his evocative and unflinching study, Stuart Rees shows us how ‘national interest’ rhetoric often enables outrages upon human dignity. He reminds us not to abandon the victims of state power or to play games with their fate.”

—Clinton Fernandes, University of New South Wales

“Cruelties promoted by policies are often ignored. This book theorises the notion of cruelty in all its forms, from direct violence to a political economy of cruelty. I loved this book.”

—Punam Yadav, University College London
