The just war tradition: Translating the ethics of human dignity into political practices
Hypatia 23 (2):pp. 72-94 (2008)
| Abstract | This essay argues that the ambiguities of the just war tradition, sifted through a feminist critique, provides the best framework currently available for translating the ethical entitlement to human dignity into concrete feminist political practices. It offers a gendered critique of war that pursues the just war distinction between legitimate and illegitimate targets of wartime violence and provides a gendered analysis of the peace which the just war tradition obliges us to preserve and pursue. | |||||||||
