Thomas W. Simon (Johns Hopkins Univ. - School for Advanced International Studies, Hopkins-Nanjing Center) has published
Genocide, Torture, and Terrorism: Ranking International Crimes and Justifying Humanitarian Intervention (Palgrave Macmillan 2016). Here's the abstract:
We are understandably reluctant to "rank" moral atrocities. What is worse, genocide or terrorism? In this book, Thomas W. Simon argues that politicians use this to manipulate our sense of injustice by exaggerating terrorism and minimizing torture. He advocates for an international criminal code that encourages humanitarian intervention.
