The Drone Debate offers a thorough investigation of the where, why,
how, and when of the U.S.'s use of UAVs. Beginning with a
historical overview of the use of drones in warfare, it then
addresses whether targeted killing operations are strategically
wise, whether they are permissible under international law, and the
related ethical issues. It also looks at the political factors
behind the use of drones, including domestic and global attitudes
toward their use and potential issues of proliferation and
escalation. Finally, the use of drones by other countries, such as
Israel and China, is examined. Each chapter features a case study
that highlights particular incidents and patterns of operation in
specific regions, including Yemen, Somalia, Pakistan, and Libya and
strike types (signature strikes, personality strikes, etc.).
