Vie et destin d'un tortionnaire Phnom Penh, mars 2009. Kaing Guek Eav, plus connu sous le nom de Douch, responsable de la torture et de la mort de plus de douze mille victimes à la prison de Tuol Sleng (S-21), est seul face à la justice internationale, seul face aux familles de ses victimes, seul peut-être plus que tout face à lui-même, à l'étendue d'un crime impossible à sonder, impossible à pardonner. Le maître des aveux raconte le destin peu ordinaire d'un bourreau khmer rouge dans les années Pol Pot, mais il met aussi en scène la " comédie humaine ", tour à tour bouleversante et déroutante, qui s'est jouée autour de son procès. Thierry Cruvellier aborde cette histoire avec une qualité de regard et d'écriture qui la place d'emblée au-dessus du simple témoignage journalistique. À partir de la dramaturgie du procès, qu'il présente avec un sens aigu de sa théâtralité, il procède à une véritable évocation, faisant surgir les témoins, les lieux, les fantômes, avec une étonnante force. " Thierry Cruvellier fonde son ouvrage sur une attention infaillible, presque impartiale et d'autant plus accablante. Il sait regarder chaque acteur présent, dans sa physionomie, son maintien, ses gestes, et trouver des mots surprenants pour le décrire, avec le désir de rendre justice à chaque aspect de la personne, à sa valeur. Un livre d'une qualité exceptionnelle. " - Le Monde " Rien n'échappe à Thierry Cruvellier, ni les réactions du public, ni les bizarreries du tribunal, ni les affrontements entre avocats étrangers et cambodgiens, ni les motivations, les failles des uns et des autres. Un récit exceptionnel, infiniment troublant. " - Le Point " Un livre formidable, un récit saisissant dans lequel Thierry Cruvellier fait entendre la parole bouleversante des victimes, celle aussi, insupportable, du bourreau. " - Télérama " Depuis une quinzaine d'années, l'auteur suit les procès pour crimes contre l'humanité. La méthode est rigoureuse, affutée à la pratique des prétoires. L'observation minutieuse et quasi clinique des forces en présence précède toujours l'analyse. 370 pages passionnantes. " - Le Figaro " Livre écrit au fer rouge, récit méticuleux des audiences, carnet de croquis impressionnistes, dans une langue admirable. " - La Croix " Il faudra se jeter sur le fascinant Maître des aveux de Thierry Cruvellier. Le grand reporter livre un compte-rendu saisissant de ce procès fleuve. Avec un talent rare, il parvient à croquer la dizaine d'acteurs de ce théâtre de dupes. " - Lire " Un récit exceptionnel qui place ce livre au-delà du témoignage. " - France Info " Un livre puissant et grave. " - Livres Hebdo

Exploring the philosophy of disobedience The world is out of joint, so much so that disobeying should be an urgent question for everyone. In this provocative essay, Frédéric Gros explores the roots of political obedience. Social conformity, economic subjection, respect for authorities, constitutional consensus? Examining the various styles of obedience provides tools to study, invent and induce new forms of civic disobedience and lyrical protest. Nothing can be taken for granted: neither supposed certainties nor social conventions, economic injustice or moral conviction. Thinking philosophically requires us never to accept truths and generalities that seem obvious. It restores a sense of political responsibility. At a time when the decisions of experts are presented as the result of icy statistics and anonymous calculations, disobeying becomes an assertion of humanity. To philosophize is to disobey. This book is a call for critical democracy and ethical resistance.

Established in 1979 in the premises of the Khmer Rouge prison S-21 in Phnom Penh, Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (TSGM) has had a turbulent history, mirroring Cambodia's social and political transformations. The book brings together academics and practitioners from multiple fields who offer novel perspectives and sources on the site and reflect on the challenges the institution has faced in the past and will face in the twenty-first century as an archive, heritage, and education site, especially with the coming of the post-justice era in the country.

Kaing Guek Eav was an ordinary young man growing up in Cambodia in the mid-twentieth century. He showed promise as a student, excelled in school, got a job as a math teacher, and experienced the political awakening common to young adulthood. But then he became a revolutionary, adopting the alias “Duch,” and took charge of S-21, the infamous secret security center of the Khmer Rouge where in less than four years at least 14,000 “enemies” of the revolution were incarcerated, interrogated, tortured, and executed. After the sudden collapse of the government, Duch fled to the Cambodian frontier, where he took yet another name and lived in workaday anonymity until he was finally unmasked and sentenced to life in prison for his involvement in the heinous crimes of S-21. This is the last interview Duch gave as a free man, taking place just days before his arrest in May 1999. In it he describes, with remarkable and sometimes chilling precision, the workings of the Khmer Rouge movement and his own role and actions in the startling irrationality of that harrowing and haphazard regime. The interview is supported by an introduction and epilogue that delve unflinchingly into Duch’s character and motivations, our own humanity, and the sometimes uncomfortable implications of global justice.

Winner, Prix Littéraire Paris-Liège 2021 Winner, French Voices Award for Excellence in Publication and Translation When we speak of mass killers, we may speak of radicalized ideologues, mediocrities who only obey orders, or bloodthirsty monsters. Who are these men who kill on a mass scale? What is their consciousness? Do they not feel horror or compassion? Richard Rechtman’s Living in Death offers new answers to a question that has haunted us at least since the Holocaust. For Rechtman, it is not ideologies that kill, but people. This book descends into the ordinary life of people who execute hundreds every day, the same way others go to the office. Bringing philosophical sophistication to the ordinary, the book constitutes an anthropology of mass killers. Turning away from existing psychological and philosophical accounts of genocide’s perpetrators, Rechtman instead explores the conditions under which administering death becomes a job like any other. Considering Cambodia, Rwanda, and other mass killings, Living in Death draws on a vast array of archival research, psychological theory, and anecdotes from the author’s clinical work with refugees and former participants in genocide. Rechtman mounts a compelling case for reframing and refocusing our attempts to explain—and preempt—acts of mass torture, rape, killing, and extermination. What we must see, Rechtman argues, is that for genocidaires (those who carry out acts that are or approach genocide), there is nothing extraordinary, unusual, or world-historical about their actions. On the contrary, they are preoccupied with the same mundane things that characterize any other job: interactions with colleagues, living conditions, a drink and a laugh at the end of the day. To understand this is to understand how things came to be the way they are—and how they might be different.

Torture is not as universally condemned as it once was. From Guantánamo and Abu Ghraib prisons to the death of Giulio Regeni, countless recent cases have shocked public opinion. But if we want to defend the human dignity that torture violates, simple indignation is not enough. In this important book, Donatella Di Cesare provides a critical perspective on torture in all its dimensions. She seeks to capture the peculiarity of an extreme and methodical violence where the tormentor calculates and measures out pain so that he can hold off the victim’s death, allowing him to continue to exercise his sovereign power. For the victim, being tortured is like experiencing his own death while he is still alive. Torture is a threat wherever the defenceless find themselves in the hands of the strong: in prisons, in migrant camps, in nursing homes, in centres for the disabled and in institutions for minors. This impassioned book will appeal to students and scholars of philosophy and political theory as well as to anyone committed to defending human rights as universal and inviolable.
