• Sommario/riassunto: Examining whether a soldier can be held responsible for fighting in a war that is illegal or unjust, the chapters in the book both challenge and defend many deeply held assumptions - about the liability of soldiers for crimes of aggression, about the nature and justifiability of terrorism, and more.
