While popular with individuals who seek to avoid too many 'boots on the ground,' preventive force is controversial because of its potential for unnecessary collateral damage.

A comprehensive resource that speaks to the contours of preventive force as a security strategy as well as to the practical, legal, and ethical considerations of its implementation, Preventive Force is a useful guide for political scientists, international relations scholars, and policymakers who seek a thorough and current overview of this essential topic.…
