Book Review - Fabio Perocco (ed.), Migration and Torture in Today’s World Venezia: Edizioni Ca’ Foscari, 2023, 290 pp.

At a particularly delicate historical juncture, namely, the post-pandemic one, where the topic of migration is regaining importance on different socio-political-economic levels, Migration and Torture in Today’s World brings to the center of research interest a concept inextricably linked to the migration phenomenon: torture. Through an analysis of torture in its broadest sense, including the inhuman and degrading treatment of migrants, this volume edited by Fabio Perocco—which follows the volume Torture and Migration (2019, Edizioni Ca’ Foscari)—compiles twelve contributions (including a rich introduction to the volume by Perocco himself) of heterogeneous content focusing on different perspectives on the correlation between migration and torture. Each author contributes through multi- and inter-disciplinary works to create a multidimensional analysis of the phenomenon, helping the reader to deconstruct the complexity of the different scientific approaches toward a common interpretative strand and a homogeneous reconstruction of the migration-torture theme.
