With a new foreword by noted theologian and ethicist Stanley Hauerwas, this classic text on war and the ethics of modern statecraft written at the height of the Vietnam era in 1968 speaks to a new generation of readers. Characterized by a sophisticated yet back-to-basics approach, The Just War begins with the assumption that force is a fact in political life which must either be reckoned with or succumbed to. It then grapples with modern challenges to traditional moral principles of just conduct in war, the morality of deterrence, and a just war theory of statecraft.Ramsey, Paul is the author of 'Just War: Force and Political Responsibility', published 1983 under ISBN 9780819133564 and ISBN 0819133566.
