Waging War: A Philosophical Introduction

0/5 ( ratings)

What is war, and how should it be waged? Are there restraints on its conduct? What can philosophers contribute to the study of warfare? This book argues that an important relationship exists between the concept of war and notions about its proper conduct, and that the practice of war requires
a sound philosophical understanding of its nature. Offering a fascinating synthesis between philosophy, history of warfare, political theory, and contemporary strategy, Clark describes how the ideas which are central to the nature of war have developed in the context of changing social, political,
and technological environments.
