Description
Helen Frowe’s “The Ethics of War and Peace” offers a rigorous philosophical examination of the moral questions that arise in contexts of armed conflict and international relations. The book explores fundamental ethical principles that should govern decisions about going to war, conducting military operations, and pursuing peace.
Frowe addresses key debates in just war theory, including when military force can be morally justified, how combatants should conduct themselves during warfare, and what obligations exist toward civilians and prisoners. She critically analyzes various ethical frameworks and their applications to contemporary conflicts and historical examples.
This comprehensive work serves as an essential resource for students, scholars, and policymakers seeking to understand the philosophical underpinnings of military ethics and international law. Frowe’s balanced approach presents multiple perspectives while maintaining rigorous analytical standards throughout.
