The 21st Century began with the declaration of the War on Terror.
Since then, over a million people have died as a direct result of
the war in Afghanistan and Iraq. The book analyzes the mechanisms
of legitimation that enabled such massive and uncounted deaths. It
begins by looking at twentieth century warfare. It investigates
international and national laws, advanced warring technology, media
and state propaganda, and argues that these structures have enabled
and legitimated the killing of innocent populations around the
world. The book focuses on WWII, the Holocaust, the Vietnam War,
the Gulf War and the War on Terror. It aims to shed light on the
different mechanisms that sanction massive killing in wartime. It
is especially useful to university students, in addition to anyone
who is interested in conflict, war codes, extreme death and
torture, media war coverage and representations, modern warfare and
the War on Terror.
