While every war is horrific and reflects the worst kind of human failure on all sides, reality indicates that, in an imperfect world, war will always exist. The challenge remains for national leaders and ordinary citizens to make every effort to wage war in a moral manner. This volume strives to help individuals decide whether war, generally or specifically, can be a moral enterprise based on core constitutional and humanitarian values. It considers the nature of conscience, various moral norms, a moral decision-making process, and the theoretical and practical issues involved in acting morally in the real world of war. By revealing how the morality of war differs from the political, military, legal and economic dimensions typically considered when making decisions about war, this valuable work educates and empowers citizens to make informed decisions about declaring, waging and ending war.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In democratic societies, it is said that wars and military interventions are fought in the name of the citizens of the nation engaged in the conflict. Yet, ordinary citizens, the major stakeholders in war, are seldom provided with as much information for making and acting on their moral decisions about war as they are about many other national issues that affect them. To fill the void, this volume addresses the nature of conscience, various moral norms, a moral decision-making process, and the theoretical and practical issues involved in attempting to avoid war or at least to make it as moral as possible, considering its nature.By discussing how the morality of war differs from its political, military, economic and legal dimensions, this unique work attempts to enable citizens to make informed decisions about declaring, waging and ending war, and to act on those decisions.Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.
