In Outsourcing War, Amy E. Eckert examines the ethical implications involved in the widespread use of PMCs, and in particular questions whether they can fit within customary ways of understanding the ethical prosecution of warfare. Her concern is with the ius in bello (right conduct in war) strand of just war theory. Just war theorizing is generally built on the assumption that states, and states alone, wield a monopoly on the legitimate use of force. Who holds responsibility for the actions of PMCs? What ethical standards might they be required to observe? How might deviations from such standards be punished? The privatization of warfare poses significant challenges because of its reliance on a statist view of the world. Eckert argues that the tradition of just war theory-which predates the international system of states-can evolve to apply to this changing world order. With an eye toward the practical problems of military command, Eckert delves into particular cases where PMCs have played an active role in armed conflict and derives from those cases the modifications necessary to apply just principles to new agents in the landscape of war. 606 $aWar$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aMilitary ethics 606 $aJust war doctrine 606 $aMercenary troops$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aPrivate security services$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aPrivate military companies$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aWar$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aMilitary ethics. 615 0$aJust war doctrine. 615 0$aMercenary troops$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aPrivate security services$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aPrivate military companies$xMoral and ethical aspects. 676 $a172.42 686 $aMK 3100$2rvk 700 $aEckert$b Amy$01692783 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820943903321 996 $aOutsourcing war$94070104 997 $aUNINA
