From descriptions of physical abuse at the hands of American prison employees to a harrowing account of extraordinary rendition and torture in Egypt, these powerful stories will inspire both empathy and outrage. Exploring themes of globalization and ethnic tension in the context of the global war on terror, Irum Shiekh here provides a space for former detainees to tell their stories and reveal the human cost of suspending civil liberties after a wartime emergency"--cProvided by publisher. 0aCivil rightszUnited States. 0aDeportationzUnited States. 0aDetention of personszUnited States. 0aMuslimszUnited StatesvInterviews. 0aMuslimszUnited StatesxSocial conditions. 0aSeptember 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001xInfluence. 0aWar on Terrorism, 2001-2009xMoral and ethical aspects.
