Due Process of Conscience: The Crimes and Punishment of Political Prisoners

By: Scaglia, Beatriz

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. While many nations allow the freedom of speech, some governments target, imprison, and even torture those who dare enter into political activism against the current regime.

This book highlights the plight of the political prisoner, also called a prisoner of conscience, from political repression to dissidence, punishment and disappearances, the work of Amnesty International, plus profiles on some notable prisoners of conscience.
