How to End a War

‘How to End a War is a strong anthology by a major group of scholars which makes important contributions to the crucial issues in the area that has come to be called jus post bellum.’ Steven P. Lee, Hobart and William Smith Colleges‘A marvellous set of essays that together provide a stimulating overview of cutting-edge issues in contemporary ethics of war.’ Journal of Peace Research‘How to End a War is worthwhile reading for its new perspectives on jus ex bello and jus post bellum, the integral view on just war theory (where the different branches are intimately connected), and for highlighting the links between the theory and related issues that are equally important for the justice of ending wars. In this way, the volume also draws much needed attention to the experiences of the combatants that we send to war.’ Ethics and International Affairs
