Book Description:
About the Author:
Military ethics have come under scrutiny during the global War on Terror, particularly at the Abu Ghraib prison and the Guantanamo detention center. How far can the ethical envelope be legitimately pushed before it stops protecting the country and causes irreparable harm to the things for which the United States stands?
Bill Rhodes is a former head of the Department of Philosophy at the U.S. Air Force Academy. He conducts professional ethics research and education at Aerworthy Consulting, LLC, and is the author of numerous articles on military ethics and professional ethical development.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This comprehensive overview examines the many facets of military ethics as they are applied during times of armed conflict and times of peace.An Introduction to Military Ethics: A Reference Handbook presents the philosophical and conceptual foundations of military ethics, offering an excellent foundation for exploration and discussion of these issues. It focuses first on the 2,500-year legacy of the "just war theory" and its application through history. It then moves to the application of that tradition in the modern era, showing how acts of terrorism by nonstate participants require a new theory and way of thinking about when and how armed force can be justifiably employed. Further, the author analyzes how new theories might alter the fundamental identity of traditional defensive military forces.The book also addresses peacetime ethical issues, such as gender integration and the role of religion in the military. The book is essential reading for military officers and students, as well as those policymakers who confront decisions about how to deploy military force during the War on Terror. This comprehensive overview examines the many facets of military ethics as they are applied during times of armed conflict and times of peace.
