When is it right to go to war? The most persuasive answer to this
question has always been 'in self-defense'. In a penetrating new
analysis, bringing together moral philosophy, political science,
and law, David Rodin shows what's wrong with this answer. He
proposes a comprehensive new theory of the right of self-defense
which resolves many of the perplexing questions that have dogged
both jurists and moral philosophers. By applying the theory of
self-defense to international relations, Rodin produces a
far-reaching critique of the canonical Just War theory. The simple
analogy between self-defense and national defense - between the
individual and the state - needs to be fundamentally rethought, and
with it many of the basic elements of international law and the
ethics of international relations.
