War, Torture and Terrorism

This book explores the role of various kinds of rules in the international security

order. Four central themes – practice, legitimacy, regulation, and responsibility –

reflect different dimensions of a rule-governed political order. The volume does not

provide a new set of rules for governing an increasingly chaotic international sys-

tem. Instead, it provides reflections upon the way in which rules can and cannot deal

with practices of violence. While many assume that “obeying the rules” will bring

more peaceful outcomes, the chapters in this volume demonstrate that this may

occur in some cases, but more often than not the very nature of a rule-governed

order will create tensions and stresses that require a constant attention to underlying

political dynamics.

This wide-ranging volume will be of great interest to students of International

Law, International Security and International Relations Theory.

Anthony F. Lang, Jr. is Senior Lecturer at the School of International Relations,

University of St Andrews.

Amanda Russell Beattie received her PhD in International Relations from the

University of St Andrews in 2008.
