The War on Terror has raised many new, thorny issues of how we can
determine acceptable action in defense of our liberties. Western
leaders have increasingly used spies to execute missions unsuitable
to the military. These operations, which often result in the
contravening of international law and previously held norms of
acceptable moral behavior, raise critical ethical questions-is
spying limited by moral considerations? If so, what are they and
how are they determined? Cole argues that spying is an act of force
that may be a justifiable means to secure order and justice among
political communities. He explores how the just war moral
tradition, with its roots in Christian moral theology and Western
moral philosophy, history, custom and law might help us come to
grips with the moral problems of spying. This book will appeal to
anyone interested in applied religious ethics, moral theology and
philosophy, political philosophy, international law, international
relations, military intellectual history, the War on Terror, and
Christian theological politics.
