Produktbeschreibung

Provides a new analysis for bringing the rules of war into alignment with contemporary means of warfare

These essays explore the overarching phenomenon of how force short of war is being used in modern conflict, and how it impacts just war theory. They show that we need to bring the rules of war into alignment with increasingly digital means of conducting kinetic warfare through the force short of war paradigm.

The use of force short of war is now commonplace, in large part owing to casualty averseness and the explosion of emerging technologies, most notably drones, autonomous robotics and cyberwarfare. It often involves the selective or limited use of military force to achieve political objectives and assumes many forms. These include targeted killing, assassination, special-forces raids, limited duration bombing campaigns or missile strikes, and ''low intensity'' counterterrorism and counterinsurgency operations.

Key Features

Investigates innovative normative methods for aligning modern conflict with contemporary ethical and legal expectations

Presents a new way to understand and potentially reconcile a centuries-old theoretical dispute between classical and revisionist accounts of just war

Provides a means of better governing the use of emerging military technologies that have plagued governments in recent times

Opens new avenues for thinking about the ethics of robotic, cyber and other novel military technologies in the context of military and political decision-making
