There is now a major new interest in ethical issues about warfare
emerging from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, conflict in Syria
and Libya, the war on terror, and the introduction of new weapon
systems, such as unmanned drones. In this re-written version of the
author's classic text, Waging War, Ian Clark asks probing questions
about how we think about war, the changes it is undergoing, and
what exactly it is we wage when we wage war. Waging War argues that
much of what passes for ethical debate is actually a set of
disagreements about what counts as war or not. This philosophical
introduction provides a critical review of the various different
ways in which the ethical debates are already framed, the questions
that arise from these debates, and seeks to bring greater clarity
and precision to the important moral arguments about political
violence.
