Preventing Unjust War

Více o knize

The book critiques the notion that the just war tradition within the Catholic Church is to blame for the justification of wars. Instead, it highlights the issue of an unjust war tradition, where ambitious leaders initiate wars without moral justification, and warriors fail to question the justice of their orders. It emphasizes the troubling belief that obedience absolves warriors of responsibility in evaluating the righteousness of the conflicts they engage in, suggesting a need for a reevaluation of both duty and morality in warfare.
