What are the limits of justified retaliation against aggression?
What actions are morally permissible in preventing future
aggression? Against whom may retaliation be aimed? These questions
have long been part of the debate over the ethics of warfare. They
all took on new meaning after terrorists hijacked four U.S.
airliners on September 11, 2001. War after September 11 considers
the just aims and legitimate limits of the United States' response
to the terrorist attacks. Six essayists from the Institute for
Philosophy and Public Policy at the University of Maryland pair off
to discuss ethical questions such as, What are the moral challenges
posed by terrorism? Can modern terrorism be addressed within the
existing paradigms of just war and international law? Should the
U.S. respond militarily or by some other means? Taken together, the
essays in this volume ask the fundamental question: How should the
United States use its power to combat terrorism?
