What role does ethics play in modern-day warfare? Is it possible
for ethics and militarism to exist hand-in-hand? James Eastwood
examines the Israeli military and its claim to be 'the most moral
army in the world'. This claim has been strongly contested by human
rights bodies and international institutions in their analysis of
recent military engagements in the West Bank, Gaza and Lebanon. Yet
at the same time, many in Israel believe this claim, including the
general public, military personnel and politicians. Compiled from
extensive research including interviews with soldiers, Eastwood
unpacks the ethical pedagogy of the Israeli military, as well as
soldier-led activism which voices a moral critique, and argues that
the belief in moral warfare doesn't exist separately from the
growing violence of Israel's occupation. This book is ideal for
those interested in military ethics and Israeli politics, and
provides crucial in-depth analysis for students and researchers
alike.
