The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have focused new attention on a
perennial problem: how to end wars well. What ethical
considerations should guide war's settlement and its aftermath? In
cases of protracted conflicts, recurring war, failed or failing
states, or genocide and war crimes, is there a framework for
establishing an enduring peace that is pragmatic and moral? "Ethics
Beyond War's End" provides answers to these questions from the just
war tradition. Just war thinking engages the difficult decisions of
going to war and how war is fought. But from this point forward
just war theory must also take into account what happens after war
ends, and the critical issues that follow: establishing an enduring
order, employing political forms of justice, and cultivating
collective forms of conciliation. Top thinkers in the field -
including Michael Walzer, Jean Bethke Elshtain, James Turner
Johnson, and Brian Orend - offer powerful contributions to our
understanding of the vital issues associated with late- and post
conflict in tough, real-world scenarios that range from the US
Civil War to contemporary quagmires in Afghanistan, the Middle
East, and the Congo.
