      Аннотация: There is a discussion in the international community about whether the Australian state party tortured asylum seekers in Nauru island or not. Australian state party ratified Covenant Against Torture and as a result, Australia is legally obliged to protect and promote the covenant. International organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch directly criticized Australian state party on torturing asylum seekers in the Nauru detention center. Nevertheless, Australian government rejected these criticisms.

Furthermore, this book analysis related academic articles, legal reports and news that specially focuses on human rights violations in Nauru Island detention center.
