Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. 1st Edition. VINTAGESTAN BOOKS Title: Just War by Charles Guthrie and Michael Quinlan. The Just War Tradition. Ethics in Modern Warfare Summary: Just War is a short book published in 2007 that examines when war can be morally justified and how war should be conducted ethically. The authors argue that, although war is inherently destructive, societies need a moral framework to limit when force is used and how it is used. Guthrie and Quinlan trace the tradition back to Christian thinkers, particularly St Augustine and St Thomas Aquinas, while explaining how it developed into principles that can be applied beyond Christianity. The purpose is not to make war "good," but to place moral restraints on the use of military force. The authors identify key conditions that should be considered before military action: • Just cause. There must be a morally serious reason for using force, such as responding to aggression. • Right authority. The decision should be made by a legitimate authority. • Right intention. The genuine purpose should be to achieve the just cause, rather than revenge, conquest or personal gain. • Proportionality. The expected good must outweigh the foreseeable harm caused by war. • Reasonable prospect of success. Force should not be used when there is no realistic possibility of achieving the objective. • Last resort. Non-military alternatives such as diplomacy, economic pressure and legal measures should be seriously considered first. Even if going to war is justified, not everything becomes permissible once fighting begins. The conduct of warfare must remain morally constrained. The central ideas include: • Discrimination/distinction. Combatants must distinguish between legitimate military targets and civilians. • Proportionality. The military advantage expected from an attack must justify the foreseeable harm to civilians and other non-combatants. • Humanity. The enemy's humanity must continue to be respected, even during conflict. This reflects the book's broader argument that the Just War tradition provides a moral compass for governments and armed forces. A major strength of the book is that it does not treat Just War theory as merely historical. Guthrie and Quinlan apply its principles to modern conflicts, including Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq. They ask whether contemporary military actions satisfy the moral requirements of just war. The authors' central message is: War should never be treated as an ordinary policy instrument. Before using force, leaders must ask whether the cause is just, whether alternatives have been exhausted, whether the likely benefits justify the costs, and whether there is a realistic chance of success. Once war begins, there remain strict moral limits on how it can be fought.
