What are the moral obligations of participants and bystanders
during-and in the wake of -a conflict? How have theoretical
understandings of justice, peace and responsibility changed in the
face of contemporary realities of war? Drawing on the work of
leading scholars in the fields of philosophy, political theory,
international law, religious studies and peace studies, the
collection significantly advances current literature on war,
justice and post-conflict reconciliation. Contributors address some
of the most pressing issues of international and civil conflict,
including the tension between attributing individual and collective
responsibility for the wrongs of war, the trade-offs made between
the search for truth and demands for justice, and the conceptual
intricacies of coming to understand just what is meant by 'peace'
and 'conflict.' Individual essays also address concrete topics
including the international criminal court, reparations, truces,
political apologies, truth commissions and criminal trials, with an
eye to contemporary examples from conflicts in the Middle East,
Africa and North and South America.
