Description
"Just War Thinking reconsiders the intersection between morality and pragmatics in foreign policy and modern warfare. The book criticizes the quasi-pacifism of most formal just war scholarship, reconceptualizes a minimal, realistic "just war thinking" framework for exploring foreign and military policy options, and evaluates the usefulness of this approach by investigating contemporary cases such as the war on terrorism in Afghanistan and Iraq, the call for assassination of political leaders, and military humanitarian intervention."--Jacket.
