Funded Activity Summary

Making torture unthinkable': the international campaign against torture, 1967-1984. How did human rights become such a pervasive global language today, and how has it shaped what states do? This project argues that a movement against torture in the 1970s and 1980s played a key role in shifting global attitudes and creating our current understanding of human rights, and provides the first analysis of how this came to be.
