Charlie’s major essay for POL30009 Critical Perspectives on Terrorism was published by E-International Relations (E-IR), the world’s leading open access website for students and scholars of international politics. The website was established in November 2007, and is recommended by leading academics and practitioners from around the world. It receives around 220,000 unique visitors a month and is peer-reviewed. Charlie’s essay, titled “The State of Deception & The Time Bomb: Evaluating Torture as Counter-Terrorism”, examined how governments circumvent rather than suspend the rule of law regarding torture in counter-terrorism practices. Well done, Charlie!
