American and international involvement in war-torn regions such as Bosnia and Somalia has come under increasing scrutiny by politicians and scholars. Here, two distinguished philosophers debate military intervention from just-war and pacifist perspectives. Describing the range of values and issues facing governments as they consider intervening in the affairs of other nations, each scholar makes his case and then responds to the opposing argument. Offering a clear treatment of the issue, this book provides a valuable overview for the student of social and political theory, ethics, international affairs, and peace and justice studies.
