Violence - from state coercion to wars and revolutions - remains an
enduring global reality. But whereas it is often believed that the
point of constitutional politics is to make violence unnecessary,
others argue that it is an unavoidable element of politics. In this
lucid and erudite book, Elizabeth Frazer and Kimberly Hutchings
address these issues using vivid contemporary and historic
examples. They carefully explore the strategies that have been
deployed to condone violence, either as means to certain ends or as
an inherent facet of politics. Examining the complex questions
raised by different types of violence, they conclude that,
ultimately, all attempts to justify political violence fail. This
book will be essential introductory reading for students and
scholars of the ethics and politics of political violence.
