This book articulates a cosmopolitan theory of the principles which
ought to regulate belligerents' conduct in the aftermath of war.
Throughout, it relies on the fundamental principle that all human
beings, wherever they reside, have rights to the freedoms and
resources which they need to lead a flourishing life, and that
national and political borders are largely irrelevant to the
conferral of those rights. With that principle in hand, the book
provides a normative defence of restitutive and reparative justice,
the punishment of war criminals, the resort to transitional foreign
administration as a means to govern war-torn territories, and the
deployment of peacekeeping and occupation forces. It also outlines
various reconciliatory and commemorative practices which might
facilitate the emergence of trust amongst enemies and thereby
improve prospects for peace. The book offers analytical arguments
and normative conclusions, with many historical and/or contemporary
examples.
