Produktbeschreibung
Explores a theory for bringing the rules of war into alignment with increasingly digital and limited means of warfare Emerging technologies such as drones, autonomous robotics and cyber systems have allowed force short of war to become commonplace. The ethical and legal issues associated with the use of these technologies are frequently the focus of debate, but their broader consequence - the rapidly expanding and rule-challenging use of force short of war - has been overlooked. This book explores rather than ignores this overarching phenomenon and investigates innovative methods for aligning modern conflict with contemporary ethical and legal expectations. It opens new avenues for thinking about the ethics of robotic, cyber and other novel military technologies in the context of military and political decision-making, before setting out and objectively assessing a theoretical framework for the use of armed force that falls between classical and revisionist accounts of just war. Dr Jai Galliott leads the Values in Defence & Security Technology Group at the University of New South Wales, Canberra and holds fellowships at the Modern War Institute at the United States Military Academy and the Centre for Technology & Global Affairs at the University of Oxford.
