This book presents a compelling and highly sophisticated
politico-legal history of a particular security operation that
resulted in one of the most high-profile torture cases in the
world. It reveals the extent to which the Ireland v. United Kingdom
judgment misrepresents the interrogation system that was developed
and utilised in Northern Ireland. Finally, the truth about the
operation is presented in a comprehensive narrative, sometimes
corroborating secondary literature already in the public domain,
but at other times significantly debunking aphorisms, or, indeed,
lies that circulated about interrogation in depth. The book sets
out the theoretical reference paradigm with respect to the culture
and practice of state denial often associated with torture, and
uses this model to excavate the buried aspects of this most famous
of torture cases. Through the lens of a single operation, conducted
twice, it presents a fascinating expose of the complicated
structures of state-sponsored denial designed to hide the truth
about the long-term effects of these techniques and the way in
which they were authorised.
