Description
Just and Unjust Wars: A Moral Argument with Historical Illustrations
This thought-provoking exploration of war and morality draws on examples from antiquity to the present day. Michael Walzer examines the moral issues that arise before, during, and after conflict, using historical accounts and testimony to explain when war is justified and what ethical limitations apply.
Walzer's analysis reaches from ancient battles like the Athenian attack on Melos to contemporary conflicts such as the current war in Afghanistan. By examining the complexities of war through a moral lens, Walzer provides a nuanced understanding of the ethics involved.
