Timothy L. Challans focuses on the systemic, institutional level of morality rather than bemoaning the moral shortcomings of individuals. He asks: What are the limits of individual moral agency? What kind of responsibility do individuals have when considering institutional moral error? How is it that neutral or benign moral actions performed by individuals can have such catastrophic morally negative effects from a systemic perspective? Drawing upon and extending the ethical theories of Kant, Dewey, and Rawls, Challans makes the case for an original set of moral principles to guide ethical action on the battlefield."…[Challans's] call for reformation combined with a demand for a new set of moral principles to govern the ethical behavior on the battlefield is certain to garner the attention and ire of many readers and military leaders." — Parameters"This is an important book that needs to be read and taken seriously. If it is, it could be as revolutionary as its subtitle suggests." — CHOICESUNY series, ethics and the military profession.Military ethicsWarMoral and ethical aspectsMilitary ethics.WarMoral and ethical aspects.172/.42Challans Timothy L.1954-1809446MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910958347903321Awakening warrior4360243UNINA01013nas 2200361 c 450 991089548930332120201001214412.0(CKB)4100000011478951(DE-101)1218541539(DE-599)ZDB3038897-1(EXLCZ)99410000001147895120200929a20089999 |y |engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBangladesh journal of political economyBangladesh Economic AssociationDhaka, BangladeshBangladesh Economic Association[2008]-Online-Ressource2227-3182 Zeitschriftgnd-content890330360Bangladesh Economic Associationisb0206DE-1019001JOURNAL9910895489303321Bangladesh journal of political economy4265854UNINA
