Get Your Hands On Post-Ethical Society: The Iraq War, Abu Ghraib, And The Moral Failure Of The Secular Designed By Douglas V. Porpora Provided As Textbook

all seen the images from Abu Ghraib: stress positions, US soldiers kneeling on the heads of prisoners, and dehumanizing pyramids formed from blackhooded bodies.
We have watched officials elected to our highest offices defend enhanced interrogation in terms of efficacy and justify drone strikes in terms of retribution and deterrence.

In this singular examination of the American discourse over war and torture, Douglas V.
Porpora, Alexander Nikolaev, Julia Hagemann May, and Alexander Jenkins investigate the opinion pages of American newspapers, television commentary, and online discussion groups to offer the first empirical study of the national conversation about theinvasion of Iraq and the revelations of prisoner abuse at Abu Ghraib a year later.

And while many writers and commentators have opined

about our moral place in the world, the vast amount of empirical data amassed in PostEthical Society sets it apartand makes its findings that much more damning.
