War has been deeply affected in recent years by a variety of social and technological developments in areas suc h as international terrorism, campaigns of genocide and ethnic cleansing, the gl obal human rights movement, economic globalization, and military technology. Thi s book asks whether just war theory is adequate to the challenges these developm ents pose. Just war theory provides rules for determining when it is justified t o fight a war. But some have argued that the nature of contemporary war makes th ese rules obsolete. For example, genocidal and aggressive regimes may require th e use of military force that is not strictly in self-defense, as just war theory requires.

By carefully examining t he phenomena of intervention, terrorism, and torture from a number of different perspectives, the essays in this book explore this set of issues with insight an d clarity.…
