Recent years have seen a resurgence of interest, among both
philosophers, legal scholars, and military experts, on the ethics
of war. Due in part due to post 9/11 events, this resurgence is
also due to a growing theoretical sophistication among scholars in
this area. Recently there has been very influential work published
on the justificaton of killing in self-defense and war, and the
topic of the ethics of war is now more important than ever as a
discrete field. The 28 commissioned chapters in this Handbook will
present a comprehensive overview of the field as well as make
significant and novel contributions, and collectively they will set
the terms of the debate for the next decade. Lazar and Frowe will
invite the leading scholars in the field to write on topics that
are new to them, making the volume a compilation of fresh ideas
rather than a rehash of earlier work. The volume will be dicided
into five sections: Method, History, Resort, Conduct, and
Aftermath. The contributors will be a mix of junior and senior
figures, and will include well known scholars like Michael Walzer,
Jeff McMahan, and David Rodin.
