Une histoire du droit international - De Salamanque à Guantanamo #[nn]

A striking graphic work from Futuropolis, this 2022 volume traces the sweep of international law from the theological debates of Salamanca to the detention facilities of Guantanamo. The cover sets the tone beautifully, placing a colonial-era European figure surrounded by indigenous men, women, and children on the left, while a modern soldier stands guard over kneeling orange-suited detainees on the right — a single image that spans centuries of legal and moral reckoning. Created by Bedoret, Corten, and Klein, it promises a thoughtful, visually compelling journey through humanity's long struggle to define rights and limits in times of war and conquest.
