Description
"The just war tradition is central to the practice of international relations, in questions of war, peace, and the conduct of war in the contemporary world, but surprisingly few scholars have questioned the authority of the tradition as a source of moral guidance for modern statecraft. Just War: Authority, Tradition, and Practice brings together many of the most important contemporary writers on just war to consider questions of authority surrounding the just war tradition. The chapters in this collection offer a compelling reassessment of the authority issues's centrality in how we can, do, and ought to think about war in contemporary global politics."--Page 4 of cover.
