La justice après la guerre. Pour une nouvelle Convention de Genève appliquée au jus post bellum
Cet article défend l'idée d'une nouvelle Convention de Genève qui serait exclusivement centrée sur les problèmes posés lors des sorties de guerre. Il existe de nombreuses lois internationales qui encadrent aussi bien le début que le déroulement de la guerre, plusieurs de ces lois revêtant une signification stratégique et morale. Pour compléter l'analyse des effets de la guerre sur la vie internationale, il faut désormais envisager aussi la phase …
Ethics Beyond War's End
On war
One in the series New Dialogues in Philosophy, Brian Orend has written an engaging dialogue from the perspectives of a critically injured soldier and his spouse on all questions related to the ethics of going to war and the ethics of fighting in war. Readers learn of the major traditions of thinking about war, including realism, pacifism, just war theory, and international law. Orend draws on a variety of references from the Civil War to the curr…
Jus Post Bellum
The introduction explains how this essay articulates the issue of ‘justice after war’ from the point of view of just-war theory, and how such a view can and ought to impact upon international law, for instance by inspiring the eventual development of a new treaty, or Geneva Convention, exclusively concerned with issues of postwar justice. In the body of the essay, attention is first given to explaining why just-war theory has traditionally ignore…

Just Wars and Cosmopolitan Hope
Dr Moellendorf’s book is a tightly argued, wide-ranging, well-written piece that is challenging, important and enjoyable. It is a sustained and reasonably comprehensive meditation upon global justice that is more thorough and more readable than the vast majority of comparable works. Truly it is a must for any one who takes global justice seriously. For my remarks, I wish to concentrate on his thoughts regarding justified wars and widespread insti…
Michael Walzer on War and Justice
Justice after War
Sadly, there are few restraints on the endings of wars. There has never been an international treaty to regulate war's final phase, and there are sharp disagreements regarding the nature of a just peace treaty. There are, by contrast, restraints aplenty on starting wars, and on conduct during war. These restraints include: political pressure from allies and enemies; the logistics of raising and deploying force; the United Nations, its Charter and…
Walzer’s General Theory of Justice
Le but principal de cet essai est de mettre en lumiere la theorie generale de la justice de Michael Waltzer, en se referant a deux de ses oeuvres, Interpretation and social criticism et Thick and thin. L'A. soutient que la cle de la theorie sociale de Waltzer reside dans son engagement central pour l'autodetermination au sein d'un espace protege. Des droits egaux a l'autonomie personnelle et a l'autonomie politique sont les valeurs les plus chere…

Michael Walzer on War and Justice
Evaluating Pacifism
Le pacifisme a toujours constitué une approche respectable et influente à l'éthique de la guerre et de la paix. On veut ici, à partir de la littérature récente, en proposer une nouvelle évaluation. Plus précisément, l'article a deux objectifs: proposer une présentation rigoureuse et charitable des thèses pacifistes; et avancer, dans la perspective de la théorie contemporaine de la juste guerre, une critique puissante et détaillée des thèses en qu…
Considering Globalism, Proposing Pluralism
Michael Walzer on Resorting to Force
American political theorist Michael Walzer is a prominent provocative thinker on the morality of warfare. His landmark study, Just and Unjust Wars, remains a modem classic. But we might ask: given that this oft–cited work first appeared in 1977, what, if any, relevance does it have for us today? Consider, for instance, Walzer's controversial account of jus ad bellum, a term traditionally referring to the justice of resorting to war
Crisis in Kosovo
This article looks at NATO's armed intervention in Serbia from the perspective of international law, and especially just war theory. After explaining the principles by which just war theory permits armed intervention, the crisis in Kosovo is used as a fascinating and relevant case study
