Summary

War is a complex and controversial issue that has been debated by philosophers, theologians, and political leaders for centuries. There is no one right answer to the question of whether or not war is ever justified.

This book brings together a diverse group of voices from around the world to offer a variety of perspectives on the morality of war. Some of the contributors argue that war can sometimes be justified on moral grounds, while others argue that war is never justified.

The contributors to this book explore the moral justifications for war, the responsibility to protect, the doctrine of just war, the lesser of two evils, and the consequences of inaction. They also discuss the history of the war in Iraq, the aftermath of the war, the moral costs of war, the ethics of war, and the politics of war.

This book is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to understand the complex moral issues involved in war. It is a book that will challenge your assumptions about war and force you to think more deeply about the morality of this most destructive of human activities.

In this book, you will find:

* A comprehensive overview of the moral issues involved in war
* A variety of perspectives on the morality of war from leading experts
* A balanced and objective analysis of the arguments for and against war
* A thought-provoking exploration of the moral costs of war
* A call for a more just and peaceful world

  • The Individualization of War - Rights Liability and Accountability in Contemporary Armed Conflict - cover

    The Individualization of War -...

    The rights and responsibilities of the individual are at the center of today's armed conflicts in a way that they have never been before. This process of "individualization," which challenges the primacy of the sovereign state, is driven by normative developments related to human rights that have elevated human-centric conceptions of security and created a new class of international crimes, as well as by technological and strategic developments that can both empower individuals as military actors and enable either the targeting or protection of particular individuals. 
     
     
     
    The Individualization of War examines the status of individuals in contemporary armed conflict in three main capacities: as subject to violence but deserving of protection; as liable to harm because of their responsibility for attacks on others; and as agents who can be held accountable for the perpetration of crimes. This book presents a novel conceptualization of the phenomenon of individualization, including how it is both practiced and contested. It then convenes a set of leading thinkers from the fields of moral philosophy, international law, and international relations to further our understanding of not only how individualization is manifest in armed conflict—in theory and in practice—but also how it generates tensions and challenges for today's scholars and practitioners.

    American Gulags show us how to overcome the Marxist indoctrination which has swept across the American government education system. 
     
      
     
    America's system of colleges and universities was once the best in the world. It contributed immeasurably to America's status as the most powerful, productive, and prosperous nation on the globe. Unfortunately, those days are long gone. Today from kindergarten through twelfth grade in the government school system, teaching reading, writing, and math have been supplanted by Marxist indoctrination. Our colleges and universities have become the final training grounds and launching pads for the next waves of Marxist activists. This book equips every American to turn this travesty around.

    The Olympic Village—a gathering place for hot young athletes bursting with aggression and testosterone. 
    Was it an act of sabotage? The rival diving team got me on my knees the night before our competition. They fed me their seed, sending my mind into a tailspin. 
    Now, I’m on international television, fully hard in my little speedo. I can’t focus on diving—my dreams are falling apart. All I can think about is how good it felt to kneel for other men. It felt so good to accept their authority… 
    What have they done to me…?

    War to the Knife - Bleeding...

    This history shines a light on America’s “first civil war”: the bloody conflict in Kansas Territory between abolitionists and proslavery extremists. Long before the secession crisis at Fort Sumter ignited the War between the States, men fought and died on the prairies of Kansas over the incendiary issue of slavery. The bitter conflict was described in the Atchison Squatter Sovereign newspaper as “war to the knife and knife to the hilt.”  In 1854 a shooting war developed between proslavery men from Missouri and free-staters in Kansas over control of the territory. The prize was whether Kansas would become a slave or a free state when admitted to the Union, a question that could decide the balance of power in Washington.  War to the Knife is an absorbing account of this bloody episode in our nation's past, told in the unforgettable words of the men and women involved: Robert E. Lee, William Tecumseh Sherman, Sara Robinson, Jeb Stuart, Abraham Lincoln, William F. Cody, and John Brown—the abolitionist who was hailed by some as a prophet, and denounced as a madman by others.
