| Description: |
What, specifically, constitutes a just war? Clearly no intellectual consensus exists on what rules should apply to such moral considerations. This title discusses how such decisions are justified in different nations, religions and cultures. |
| Synopsis: |
This timely book analyses how different nations, religions and cultures justify the waging of war, and what limits they place on its use. The study includes the major world religions such as Christianity, Judaism and Islam and specific countries and regions including Russia, China and Africa. The case studies shed new light on the causes and justifications of current conflicts, providing a valuable source for those wishing to understand how different people around the world view the issue of war. The book crosses disciplinary boundaries and thus will be welcomed by scholars of international relations, philosophy, religion and history. |
