More specifically, I argue that reading the book in its larger legal and political context unveils the ideologies that promote torture in the name of state security. And, it offers a rebuttal to those ideologies through a critical analysis of the distribution of legal personhood and literary subjectivity in the context of Guantánamo.}, journal={Radical Teacher}, author={Moore, Alexandra Schultheis}, year={2016}, month={Feb.}, pages={27–37} }
